Efficient Baseline for Quantitative Precipitation Forecasting in Weather4cast 2023

Akshay Punjabi, Pablo Izquierdo Ayala

Accurate precipitation forecasting is indispensable for informed decision-making across various industries. However, the computational demands of current models raise environmental concerns. We address the critical need for accurate precipitation forecasting while considering the environmental impact of computational resources and propose a minimalist U-Net architecture to be used as a baseline for future weather forecasting initiatives.
