Design And Implementation Of A Regional Weather Forecasting System

Abstract

Weather soothsaying is the operation of wisdom and technology to prognosticate the state of the atmosphere for a given position. mortal beings have tried to prognosticate the rainfall informally for glories, and formally since the nineteenth century. Weather vaticinations are made by collecting quantitative data about the current state of the atmosphere and using scientific understanding of atmospheric processes to project how the atmosphere will evolve. The end of this exploration design is to apply a rainfall soothsaying system through the system of continuity which will be used to collect data about rainfall conditions about specific locales rather that large geographical zones.

General Introduction

Preface

Weather soothsaying is the operation of wisdom and technology to prognosticate the state of the atmosphere for a given position. mortal beings have tried to prognosticate the rainfall informally for glories, and formally since the nineteenth century. Weather vaticinations are made by collecting quantitative data about the current state of the atmosphere and using scientific understanding of atmospheric processes to project how the atmosphere will evolve.( Wikipedia Online Encyclopedia,n.d).

Once an each- mortal bid grounded substantially upon changes in barometric pressure, current rainfall conditions, and sky condition, rainfall soothsaying now relies on computer- grounded models that take numerous atmospheric factors into account. mortal input is still needed to pick the stylish possible cast model to base the cast upon, which involves pattern recognition chops, teleconnections, knowledge of model performance, and knowledge of model impulses. The chaotic nature of the atmosphere, the massive computational power needed to break the equations that describe the atmosphere, error involved in measuring the original conditions, and an deficient understanding of atmospheric processes mean that vaticinations come less accurate as the difference in current time and the time for which the cast is being made( the range of the cast) increases. It’s because of perimeters of crimes caused by the cast styles above that the fashion of soothsaying rainfall information by continuity is used.

continuity remains the simplest system of vaticinating the rainfall, continuity, relies upon moment’s conditions to read the conditions hereafter. This can be a valid way of vaticinating the rainfall when it’s steady state, similar as during the summer season in the tropics. This system of soothsaying explosively depends upon the presence of a stagnant rainfall pattern. It can be useful in both short range vaticinations and long range vaticinations( University of Illinois, 2007).

Statement Of The Problem

Weather soothsaying information acquired by severale-applications is sourced form rainfall satellites which give information about a large area which could cover geographical sub-regions. The problems associated in counting on the data handed by similar means are outlined below

Inaccurate data The rainfall condition about a particular region can not be directly gathered with high perfection by the satellite observers and hence inaccurate data is supplied to thee-applications.

Inaccurate Forecast Prediction Due to the collection of inaccurate data about a particular position within the geographical space being covered, the rainfall cast vaticination computations will affect in inaccurate results.

Points And Objects

This exploration design aims to address the problems cited above by Regional Weather Forecast System in order to directly, through the fashion of rainfall soothsaying by the continuity system, prognosticate the rainfall condition about a specific position. This will be achieved through the perpetration of the following objects

• give a platform through which the indigenous data parameters about a particular position will be collected and submitted to a central position for othere-Science operations to pierce

• Design an onlinee-Science operation to pierce the data to give rainfall cast prognostications grounded on the data.

Significance Of The Study

Through the successful perpetration of this exploration design, accurate data will be collected about a particular area which will insure dependable rainfall vaticination analysis and latterly reduce the pitfalls of business accidents caused by incorrectly read rainfall prognostications.

Compass And Limitations

The compass of this works covers the following

• Provision of a platform through which the indigenous data parameters about a particular position will be collected and submitted to a central position for othere-Science operations to pierce

This study will be limited to indigenous rainfall data gotten from Lagos state, and thee-Science operation developed will only cover the use of the data collected to prognosticate the rainfall condition of the following day.

Exploration Methodology

The source of data to be used for this work will come from the internet, libraries and public journals.

Description Of Terms

Weather vaticinating Weather soothsaying is the operation of current technology and wisdom to prognosticate the state of the atmosphere for a unborn time and a given position.

Weather Satellite The rainfall satellite is a type of satellite that’s primarily used to cover the rainfall and climate of the Earth. Satellites can be polar ringing, covering the entire Earth asynchronously, or geostationary, swimming over the same spot on the ambit.
