Businesses of all types and sizes are taking note of the value of weather
data. Huge collaborative partnerships have been formed, and companies
are allocating significant budgets to the data analytics of understanding
how weather affects consumer behavior.
3 Prediction of monsoon
Several studies have attributed the rising trend in the frequency and
magnitude of the extreme rainfall events and decreasing trend in
moderate rainfall events during monsoon season over central Indian
region to climate change and natural variability.
No need for fortune tellers to predict the weather, we’ve got the power of
statistics.
Data first became crucial to predicting the weather in the mid-1800s, with
the invention of the telegraph. The telegraph allowed forecasters to
receive and record observations from much greater distances. It was
during this time that the collection of weather-related data began to grow
and change the way weather was predicted.
Today, weather-related data and the scientific discipline of statistics are
much more sophisticated. The data, for example, are now collected
through satellites, barometers, radars, weather balloons and many other
instruments that are located on land, in water and the atmosphere. The
data these instruments are collecting includes atmospheric pressure,
temperature, speed, rain, humidity, and many other components of
current weather conditions.
Though some still feel weather predictions are no more than educated
guesses, in reality, they are the result of extensive statistical analysis.
Monitoring the data from all of these tools allows meteorologists to track
changes in the weather through time. It’s important to observe previous
weather conditions (from last hour, to last year, to even the last century!)
in order for meteorologists to know what to expect in the future.
A snowstorm may set up a similar pattern to one in the past but produce a
different amount of snow in a different part of the state.
a. Historical Analysis
Evaluating historical trends is often a trusted method for predicting future
patterns.
b. Forecasting
Statisticians are experts in probability and statistical inference that affect
forecasting. The science of applied statistics considers factors like
probability laws and theorems, discrete and continuous random variables
and joint distributions.
c. Predictive Analytics
In studying available data, statisticians apply predictive modeling methods
to systematically anticipate outcomes. Models may include linear and
nonlinear regression models and classification models. Applied statistics
includes constructing and evaluating predictive models.
