Weather Forecast Uav

The Weather Forecast UAV is built for weather forecasting work. Its fitted sensors collect real temperature, humidity, pressure and wind data within 5km horizontal and 3km vertical flight scope, and send readings back to ground terminals instantly to form weather analysis results. It makes up missing monitoring data over rugged lands and under sudden weather shifts, supplying valid field measurements to fuel numerical forecast modeling.

Description

Features

Beidou satellite navigation - reliable positioning via the Beidou constellation across all operational areas, supporting precise waypoint navigation and accurate geo-referencing of atmospheric observations
Single and multi-station observation modes - supports independent single-platform profiling and coordinated multi-UAV networked observation, enabling both targeted point profiles and spatially distributed atmospheric sampling for forecast model support
200+ waypoint mission planning - programmable mission routes with more than 200 waypoints allow complex three-dimensional atmospheric sampling trajectories tailored to specific forecast support objectives - ascent profiles, isobaric level legs, frontal cross-sections, or grid-pattern surveys
Operational safety functions - lost-link return-to-home and low-battery return-to-home functions ensure platform recovery under abnormal conditions, supporting operational confidence in extended and beyond-visual-line-of-sight forecast missions

Application fields

It gathers detailed atmospheric data to feed into weather prediction models, lifting forecasting precision in regions short of monitoring coverage. It conducts targeted air sampling over mountains, islands and coasts to solidify short-term weather judgment. The drone flies out quickly before storms, fog and frontal movements, offering firsthand data to cut forecast errors. It supplies customized wind and air condition data for launches, outdoor gatherings and construction works. Real flight measurements help check model results and fix inherent calculation deviations. Multiple drones operating together capture full 3D atmospheric changes to back up analysis amid severe weather.

Why Choose Our Weather Forecast UAV

Simultaneous Acquisition of Five Essential Meteorological Elements

A single drone flight enables simultaneous in situ measurement of atmospheric temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed and wind direction. Such measurement provides essentially complete thermodynamic and dynamic atmospheric information for assimilation in numerical weather prediction and forecast analysis.

Multidrone Networking to Accomplish 3D Complete-three Dimensional Coverage

The system promotes coordinated interaction amongst the multiple drone platforms. Multiple drone platforms can simultaneously collect atmospheric profiles at multiple separates sites this will result in the generation of horizontal and three-dimensional wind flow field images, which are not possible with one drone at one site.

Flexible 3D sampling is suitable for application in complex terrain conditions.
There are over 200 waypoints available for users to select their desired route(s) or path(s). As noted above, the waypoints can also be expressed in terms of conducting vertical soundings, maintaining a constant altitude during cruise, conducting horizontal scans, or performing targeted weather sampling. Flexible 3D sampling complements missing data from both challenging terrains and changing weather conditions.

Flexible 3D Sampling is fast, efficient, and can be moved quickly from one site to another to provide mobile observation solutions. Because this system is compact and easy to transport, it can be quickly moved to another location and redeployed to new sites as the weather conditions change. The versatility of flexible 3D sampling is unmatched by any other type of stationary meteorological (weather) facility (station).
