The intent of the IBTrACS project is to overcome best track data availability issues that arise from multiple agencies producing data for different storms in different formats. This was achieved by working directly with all the Regional Specialized Meteorological Centers and other international centers and individuals to create a global best track dataset, merging storm information from multiple agencies into one product and archiving the data for public use.
