Democratizing Weather
IBM GRAF Everyone deserves accurate and reliable weather forecasts and data. Until recently, a lack of specialized equipment and forecasting models hindered access to timely weather information for certain parts of the world. In response, we created IBM Global High-Resolution Atmospheric Forecasting System (IBM GRAF). Running on an IBM POWER9 supercomputer, this global weather model updates hourly and at a 3 – 4 km resolution to help create a clear and reliable weather picture for more reliable weather insights.
