- The India Meteorological Department launched two advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based weather forecast systems for better monsoon prediction.
- The first system is India’s first AI-enabled block-level monsoon forecasting model for predicting rainfall and monsoon onset at the local level.
- The second system provides AI-driven impact-based weather services by combining numerical weather prediction models with Artificial Intelligence technology.
- The systems were developed with the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology and the National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting.
- The model gives forecasts every Wednesday up to four weeks in advance with an error margin of nearly four days.
- At present, the system covers 3,196 blocks across 15 States and one Union Territory, mainly in rainfed regions.
