Since the Met Office awarded the new supercomputer contract to Microsoft so much around us has changed. The journey of moving cloud prediction to the cloud has had many twists and turns, challenges and opportunities.
Hear about the journey in pursuit of new science and modelling capability that will revolutionise what and how we will harness pioneering science to help people make better decisions. This talk will explore how we have and will continue to evolve to manage the vast increase in data scale and quality. Then talk you through our plans for exploitation of the new capabilities working in partnership with Microsoft and other technology partners.
It delves into new production processes, the exploitation of ensembles, post processing and automation of production AND what all this means for operational meteorological skills and the products and services we provide.
