5. Concept & Technology
• Meteo-Logic’s innovative technology offers an automated
solution to the problem of connecting the synoptic
forecasts at high altitudes with forecasting measured
values on the ground.
• The flow stems from two primary reasons:
– The physics that links the situation at high altitudes with the
measured values on the ground are extremely complex, and are
dependent on a large number of parameters.
– The topography and climate of a specific point are very
significant influences on getting accurate values.

6. Concept & Technology
• Meteo-Logics service works in two stages:
– The system gets historic data for several years for a specific
point. Using this data, the system develops a complex, specific
model to link the synoptic situation to the measured values in
that specific area over time. This new statistical model is based
on specially developed Knn algorithms.
– To give a real-time prediction, the system uses the current or
forecast synoptic situation, and compares it to the historic
synoptic situations previously fed for that area. The algorithm
examines similar past synoptic situations and chooses the
correct metamorphosis for that particular synoptic situation.

7. Solution
Meteo-Logic is SAAS platform, built to enable weather
forecasting derived from any weather station around the
globe directly to end users with no human intervention
• Accurate forecasting
Meteo-Logic brings the most accurate weather forecasting to a specific point, Our
algorithm analyze weather data history and generate 5 days hourly forecasting
accordingly
• High availability
As a SAAS service, Meteo-Logic’s forecasting is available to its user on any media, in any
place with internet connection (dedicated mobile app is under development)
• Competitive pricing
Meteo-Logic’s pricing plans are highly attractive, mainly due to the fact that the the
human factor is eliminated, we are build for scale and can serve high volume of
concurrent users

Comparative ranking of the predictions of the global model
(GFS) and ML
Ranges for successful prediction
Temperature - 1 C
Relative Humidity – 10%
Wind speed – 4 m/s
Validation for 4 stations
The rank is the percentage of successful predictions
ML rank is higher by 20-30%
