How does IBM source weather data?
Grid-line Interpolation
- Establishes 4 x 4 km grids across North America for precipitation based on their source
- Field coordinates define what grid the measurements come from
End Result?
- Not tailored: All fields in the same grid-box get the same weather value
- No Control: Raw data source and methods not transparent to Granular
- Limited Support: Data is only accessible at the time of request
