Meteorological Satellite Observations and Army Operations


Book Description

Determination of rainfall from satellite data requires the examination of the following features: (1) Watch for a rapid growth of the anvil cloud. It is a clear indication of strong updrafts inside the cloud. (2) Determine the motion of the head area on the upwind side. If the upwind side does not drift fast, or even stays at the same spot, it is an indication of a giant storm standing against the steering winds. (3) Rainfall does not end when the overshooting tops disappear. A ground truth experiment for interpretation of SMS/GOES data is presented. Included are: (1) techniques for cloud growth analyses from successive pictures, (2) development of a time lapse whole sky photograph program, and (3) the solution of camera calibrations that relate to the cloud height and growth computations.

Artificial Intelligence of Things for Weather Forecasting and Climatic Behavioral Analysis


Book Description

Weather forecasting and climate behavioral analysis have traditionally been done using complicated physics models and accompanying atmospheric variables. However, the traditional approaches lack common tools, which can lead to incomplete information about the weather and climate conditions, in turn affecting the prediction accuracy rate. To address these problems, the advanced technological aspects through the spectrum of artificial intelligence of things (AIoT) models serve as a budding solution. Further study on artificial intelligence of things and how it can be utilized to improve weather forecasting and climatic behavioral analysis is crucial to appropriately employ the technology. Artificial Intelligence of Things for Weather Forecasting and Climatic Behavioral Analysis discusses practical applications of artificial intelligence of things for interpretation of weather patterns and how weather information can be used to make critical decisions about harvesting, aviation, etc. This book also considers artificial intelligence of things issues such as managing natural disasters that impact the lives of millions. Covering topics such as deep learning, remote sensing, and meteorological applications, this reference work is ideal for data scientists, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
