Nikhil Podduturi - Senior Data Engineer/Data Scientist at MeteoGroup

ABSTRACT
Progress in weather forecasting and in climate modelling over the past 50 years has been dramatic. Due to these dramatic improvements the data being generated increased exponentially. While the first computer ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) took 24 hours to make a 24 hour integration weather forecast, right now at MeteoGroup we generate weather forecasts for next 10 days on the fly from the browser. At the core of [...]
