AIRWeatherTM

AIRWeatherTM — the weather technology division of AIR Worldwide (AIR) — offers high-quality data and forecasts to companies in weather-sensitive industries. You can use those products to improve your operational planning and your strategies for managing weather-related risk.

AIRWeather builds on AIR's 15 years of experience in catastrophe modeling. The foundation for the service is a state-of-the-art system for forecasting weather and climate, based on the latest technologies in numerical weather and climate prediction. Every day, AIRWeather computers take in several gigabytes of atmospheric data from around the world. Hundreds of high-performance processors running in parallel let AIRWeather meteorologists and climate scientists model weather events and issue probabilistic forecasts specifically designed to help you manage risk.

Because high-quality data is essential for making informed decisions, AIRWeather has developed advanced techniques to improve the quality of historical and real-time weather observations from stations around the world. AIRWeather data-cleaning and reconstruction technologies can:

• correct data errors
• fill in missing values with high-quality estimates
• adjust old data to be consistent with observations from stations in their current configuration and settings
• provide reliable data over time for evaluating weather-risk contracts, such as weather derivatives and options
