TROPICAL STORM TRACKER

The Tropical Storm Tracker software provides the most up-to-date weather data possible. A machine learning model issues storm intensity estimates and forecasts with every incoming satellite image, numerical weather forecast and dropsonde measurement. Application segments include insurance linked security funds (ILS), (re)insurance, emergency and disaster management, aviation and shipping.

WEATHER INSTRUMENTS

StreamSondes

The StreamSonde is the world´s lightest weather sonde. It weighs less than 15 grams, and it is used as a radiosonde, a dualsonde (i.e. radiosonde during ascent and free falling dropsonde during descent) or as a dropsonde. In all user scenarios, it provides numerous benefits.

“Weather provides some of the most demanding tasks for data processing and forecasting. There is a need to acquire and process weather data faster, in more detail and more reliably than ever before.”

News

Weather Intelligence Company Skyfora Launches the World’s Lightest Weather Sonde – Provides High-Resolution Data for AI Weather Forecasts

The new StreamSonde floats freely with the winds of the atmosphere after a launch from an aircraft, balloon or drone. As a result, the increasing number of storms caused by global warming and other weather phenomena can be scanned at greater detail than ever before. The high-resolution data feeds numerical weather predictions and emerging AI-powered weather and hurricane forecasts, such as Skyfora’s own Tropical Storm Tracker.
