AI in Action Stage

Presentation

In collaboration with Ventus Tech GmbH, alitiq is developing an innovative, data-driven machine learning model for weather forecasting. This model aims to predict the next several hours of weather, with a focus on precipitation and cloud development, which are critical factors in mobility and enrgy use cases. Ventus Tech will present their insights on mobility topics, and alitiq will talk about solar power integration and trading.The construction of such a comprehensive model necessitates the management of petabytes of data and the implementation of a distributed infrastructure comprising GPUs. The presentation will highlight the merits of machine learning in weather forecasting when contrasted with traditional numerical weather forecasting methods, with particular emphasis on their practical applications.

The ""Nowcast AI"" project is funded by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking Fortissimo Plus.
