In recent years, climate change has led to the increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather and natural disasters, creating a global challenge, and there is a rapidly growing need for disaster prevention and mitigation, as well as infrastructure resilience. Meanwhile, the private sector is increasingly using observation data from satellites and space equipment, creating a demand for highly accurate weather forecasts and solutions that utilize space data. By combining 宇宙データ‘s Earth Digital Twin technology with Meisei Electric‘s high-density weather observation data, it is now possible to perform localized, real-time predictions and analyses that were previously difficult to perform using conventional observation and analysis, and this is expected to create new value in a wide range of social and industrial fields.
