Abstract: A system (100) for using mobile data to improve weather information is provided. The system (100) includes a weather prediction station (120) configured to receive stationary observation data provided by a plurality of stationary weather stations (110) along with data from a plurality of input weather models (115) and generate unified weather model estimates based on the stationary observation data, the input weather model data, and a processor (130). The processor (130) is configured to aggregate mobile observation data provided by a plurality of non-stationary sensors (140) and use the aggregated mobile observation data to adjust the weather model estimates.

Abstract: A weather data system (100) with coded weather data is provided. The weather data system (100) includes an observation location (110), the observation location (110) comprising a plurality of data sources (112) configured to provide observation data (212). The observation location (110) is configured to at least one of code the observation data (212) into a coded observation data (212?) and provide the observation data (212) to a data aggregator (114) configured to code the observation data (212) into the coded observation data (212?).

Abstract: The present application describes a means for utilizing mobile sensors to obtain estimated weather observations for use in enhancing climatological databases. Such mobile sensor data is incorporated into a database also containing data from fixed reference sensors. The mobile sensor weather data is combined statistically to derive pseudo-observations to be added to the database. The data from sensors and from prior pseudo-observations are used to perform quality analysis of the data in the database and invalidate outlier data values. The remaining data is used to generate a climatology database that enables generation of more accurate weather forecasts.
