Meteomatics' Global soil moisture deficit

The amount of water that can be held is called field capacity. The calculation of the SMD is mainly based on soil water information in several depths as well as other meteorological parameters. SMD is a useful tool in order to assess prevailing soil conditions like droughts. The SMD also depends on the soil type. The SMD capability is available globally and we already ingest observations from partners to create a localized forecast, particularly across the UK and Switzerland.
