Tomorrow.io just released the results from its first two radar satellites, which, thanks to machine learning, turn out to be competitive with larger, more old-school forecasting tech on Earth and in orbit.
Weather prediction is complex for a lot of reasons, but the interplay between high-powered but legacy hardware (like radar networks and older satellites) and modern software is a big one.
Space is, of course, the obvious place to invest, but weather infrastructure is prohibitively big and heavy.
Tomorrow.io’s plan is to create a new space-based radar infrastructure with a modern twist.
“We are working on providing real time precipitation data anywhere in the world, which we believe is a game changer in the field of weather forecasting,” Chowla said.
