In this case the source information comes from ASTERIX CAT008, it can be share with a MeteoOceanographicConditionService.
ASTERIX CAT008 describes the exchange of precipitation zones coming from Weather Radars. Each zone corresponds to an intensity of precipitation and is described by a set of summit points describing a closed polygon ("Contour Points"). It is possible to translate these zones using the entities "MeteoOceanographicCondition" with "Location".
