Ignitia's physics-optimized and AI driven weather forecasts significantly outperform global models, especially in the most critical parameter of them all: rainfall prediction accuracy.
Do you know where your weather data comes from?
Chances are, the source of your weather data comes from a “global model” (GFS, ECMWF, UKMET), which typically has a coarse resolution, misses critical microclimate phenomena, and isn’t leveraging artificial intelligence
Ignitia combines remote sensing and satellite data, high-resolution modeling, and physics based artificial intelligence to create hyper-localized forecasts designed specifically for your location.
Our team of scientists and AI engineers pay particular attention to challenging heat & moisture driven storms which are being supercharged by climate change.

Why rainfall is hard to predict
Not all rainfall systems are the large, slow moving, pressure-driven systems you may see covered by your local weather person on TV. Some storm systems (the convective storms we specialize in) are faster forming and moving, smaller in size but more intense, and disappear before your barometric pressure sensor or weather station knows what hit them. To accurately predict the weather, you need to model different storm types for different climates, which we do at ignitia.
