MojiWeather deploys AI to boost forecast precision

Chinese meteorological service provider Beijing MojiFengYun Technology Co Ltd, or MojiWeather, has launched a major upgrade to its meteorological service matrix to help enhance global forecasting precision by utilizing artificial intelligence technology.

Founded in 2010, the weather service platform said it would continue to strengthen the exploration and application of AI with meteorological data. With the frequent occurrence of extreme weather and urban residents' accelerated pace of life, consumers are demanding more precise and scenario-based weather forecasting to optimize their travel, health and work schedules, and other life decisions.

The traditional weather forecast model can no longer meet consumer demand for information such as when it will rain, how heavy the rain will be and how to respond, resulting in a gap between information value and schedule arrangements of consumers, the company said.
