The CMA Keeps the Keys: China's First Sectoral Rules for Public Meteorological Data Authorized Operation
In March 2026 the Office of the China Meteorological Administration issued the Measures for the Administration of the Authorized Operation of Public Meteorological Data (Trial) — 公共气象数据授权运营管理办法（试行）, Qi Ban Fa [2026] No. 23 — the first complete sector-specific implementation of the NDRC/NDA authorized-operation framework inside a national vertical system that DCC has recorded. DCC has translated the full 39-article text. The design departs from the national baseline in one consistent direction: control. Operating terms are capped at three years against the national five; operating institutions pass a provincial review, a CMA maturity assessment and the CMA's own 'three majors and one large' deliberation before they may even bid; downstream developers become a third catalogued and supervised tier; nobody but an implementing institution may sub-authorize data, even disguised as cooperative development; and no product trades without a CMA-issued meteorological-data identity tag registered on the CMA's circulation supervision platform. Read against the National Data Administration's Data Property Rights Registration Work Guide — whose public-data clause lets products formed through authorized operation take property-rights registration and circulate as certificated market assets — the meteorological version keeps the development right inside the system: what a market entity gets is a term-limited, contract-based service role inside CMA infrastructure, not a registrable right over what it builds.
