National forecasting infrastructure

AI forecasting that works inside your national service

Vaisala Xweather works alongside your existing NWP infrastructure. By pairing 90 years of Vaisala atmospheric measurement with Xweather AI-native modeling, national services can raise spatial resolution, produce forecasts faster, and issue early warnings sooner.

How Xweather works with national MET services

01AI-augmented forecasting

Your meteorologists direct the AI layer, which runs routine forecasts up to 40,000× faster than traditional NWP. Human judgment stays at the center.

02Turnkey or DaaS deployment

Run a complete national forecasting stack, or access the models as Data-as-a-Service streams. Both can ingest Vaisala observations.

03Built on your network

Our models build on the instruments already in your network and help get more out of each one. They also show which new sensors would add the most value, and where.

04Public-private collaboration

National meteorological institutions lead the science. Xweather delivers the operational layer that helps agencies fulfill their public safety missions.

Solutions for meteorological operators

User

National MET directors, regional forecasting teams, and government modernization leads.

Challenge

National services need modern forecasting and early warnings, but building AI capability in-house requires specialized skills, compute, and years of investment, on top of the daily work of delivering forecasts and warnings. For many, the UN Early Warnings for All initiative adds a deadline: full population coverage by the end of 2027.

Solution

Xweather gives agencies a turnkey AI forecasting stack, with national coverage and early warning capability, without building machine learning infrastructure from scratch. We can also design and install the observation network that feeds it. Both directly support the Early Warnings for All initiative.

Impact
  • Deploy modern AI-native forecasting in months rather than years.

  • Maintain full data ownership and national forecasting sovereignty.

  • Deliver localized early warnings for extreme weather events.
