Spatially-resolved hyperlocal weather prediction and anomaly detection using IoT sensor networks and machine learning techniques

Anita B. Agarwal, Rohit Rajesh, Nitin Arul

Accurate and timely hyperlocal weather predictions are essential for various applications, ranging from agriculture to disaster management. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that combines hyperlocal weather prediction and anomaly detection using IoT sensor networks and advanced machine learning techniques. Our approach leverages data from multiple spatially-distributed yet relatively close locations and IoT sensors to create high-resolution weather models capable of predicting short-term, localized weather conditions such as temperature, pressure, and humidity. By monitoring changes in weather parameters across these locations, our system is able to enhance the spatial resolution of predictions and effectively detect anomalies in real-time. Additionally, our system employs unsupervised learning algorithms to identify unusual weather patterns, providing timely alerts. Our findings indicate that this system has the potential to enhance decision-making.
