The team is part of an international project using the Games to develop tools for making hyperlocal climate predictions. UT researchers plan to apply what they learn in Austin.
— the chance to compete on a global stage. But researchers are also using the international event as an opportunity to refine and advanceNiyogi said current weather forecasts are focused on regional, larger-scale weather patterns — not the unique environment of cities. He said the models don’t take into account factors like how the sun heats up an urban area, how the wind might flow through buildings, the impact of shade from trees or pollution.
“These effects cannot be put into our large models," he said,"not because we don’t understand them, but because if we were to solve those equations from a micro to a regional scale they would take an enormous amount of computational power and they would also take a lot of time." Naveen Sudharsan, a postdoctoral fellow who is also working on the project, said another advantage of using AI is that the forecasts are ready in mere minutes.
