Within the Météo-France Group, 2016 was a year of transition for Meteo France International (MFI), after Egis Avia parted ways with its capital at the end of 2015. A great deal of effort has been invested in finalizing contracts for flagship projects which should bear fruit through 2017. 2016 also saw the Geode4D/SysEnv invitation to tender, organized by the General Defence Procurement Directorate, being awarded jointly to MFI and Airbus Defence and Space (AD&S). This is strong recognition indeed of MFI’s acumen and skill set and will help to showcase Météo-France’s expertise regarding all of France’s Armed Forces.
