GeoRain
AI Application AI Technology AI for Society COMPUTER VISION DEEP LEARNING REALTIME'Georain' employs high-resolution geostationary satellite imagery to generate AI-based radar maps, enabling effective precipitation monitoring in areas lacking weather radar. Initially developed for East Asia, it has since been extended and validated for use in Africa and South America. This service utilizes a generative deep learning model with physical constraints, significantly improving accuracy over operational rain rate retrieval algorithms for geostationary satellites. It also overcomes the limitations of continuous monitoring with low Earth orbit satellites equipped with microwave sensors, demonstrating considerable enhancements in continuous global precipitation monitoring.
