Meteomatics

We are the world's leading provider of weather information. With unique technologies, high-resolution weather models and far-reaching competencies, we create a strong foundation so that you can work intelligently with weather data. By using the world’s most accurate weather and climate data, you can improve operational processes and manage extreme weather situations better. Our Weather Intelligence Approach Forecast accuracy and direct and easy access to weather data are the most important criteria for companies looking for reliable weather information. With our Weather Intelligence approach, we aim to take the accuracy of weather forecasts to a whole new level. To achieve this, we create unique technologies for forecasts, calculate high-resolution weather models and combine all this with the outstanding skills of our employees. Our experience covers the whole process chain of a weather service provider: acquisition and processing of weather station data, numerical weather models, radar images, satellite data as well as visualization of meteorological data and the development of customer specific forecasting systems, e.g. PV and wind power forecasts. Data refinement and delivery to the customer is part of the business. As first swiss company Meteomatics developed a weather drone, the so called Meteodrone. As a flying weather station the Meteodrone collects data to close this gap. It is now the first time that extremely precise information on temperature, humidity and wind in the lower atmosphere can be recorded.
