WEATHER FORECAST
Who knows if that forecasted precipitation will do more harm than good? Metos Knows.
Weather Forecast
High precision, localized weather forecasting calibrated with site-specific data.
Near real-time and historic weather is important for understanding what is impacting the crops. Future weather or forecasts are important for planning and future activities. iMETEO brings these two aspects together.
HYPER-LOCAL WEATHER FORECAST
With an iMETOS weather station you get the best forecast for your farm and fields. By using real-time local measurements to create an accurate modeled forecast output, eliminating model bias and updating the forecast frequently with the most recent data from your station, satellite and radar. Artificial intelligence further increases the model’s skill and optimally combine/select the best forecast models at any particular location.
With enhanced field specific predictions farmers can save time, money and resources by minimizing crop risk due to drought, disease, pest pressure or poorly timed field activities. High precision weather forecasts are one of the key variables that will help you make the right decision at the right time for your farm.
