Weather can affect trillions of dollars in GDP... we need better forecasts | Cole Swain | TEDxBoston

Weather is serious business. 74% of aviation delays are weather-related. US energy companies lose $150 billion a year to weather outages. 40% of global crop yield is affected by weather variability. Yet 90% of the world's surface has no weather observation infrastructure, leaving 5 billion people without reliable forecast data. The AI models now transforming weather prediction have a critical weakness: they train on simulated data rather than real atmospheric measurements. That means they are as good as the data they are trained on. New satellite technology in low Earth orbit could build a continuous three-dimensional picture of the global atmosphere and offer AI models live data for the first time. Learn how the future of global forecasts might be fast enough to detect a developing thunderstorm or a forming wildfire and report within minutes. Cole Swain is SVP of Strategic Partnerships at Tomorrow.io, a Boston-based weather intelligence company that has built and launched a constellation of microwave sounder satellites in low Earth orbit, providing the first near-real-time, high-resolution atmospheric profile of the global atmosphere from space. He has spent more than a decade working across climate technology, product development, and business strategy, and has led go-to-market and partnership efforts with organizations including Delta, JetBlue, the US Air Force, and National Grid. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Receive SMS online on sms24.me
