Title

Process meteorological data to provide urban-scale weather forecasting products

Business Needs / Challenges

To develop a meteorological data processing system (MetDPS) for processing the meteorological data collected from the weather sensors installed at around 80 lampposts to make real-time weather measurements.

Application Areas

City Management
Climate and Weather
Environment

Expected Outcomes

The new infrastructures will bring benefits to areas including: (a) in-house development of new data processing modules that can accommodate and process more observational data from the Pilot Multi-functional Smart Lampposts Scheme and forecast data from computer weather forecasting models, and (b) the development of more sophisticated post-processing methods to enhance the local site-specific weather information and forecast services with more forecast locations.
