The Weather Forecast: When Data Meets Dollars The recent $37 million Series B funding round for WindBorne Systems has brought attention to the intersection of weather forecasting and big data.
As a startup that collects weather data with low cost balloons and feeds it into AI powered forecasting models, WindBorne is poised to disrupt traditional meteorology and business decision making based on weather forecasts.
WindBorne's proprietary dataset, generated by its network of balloons collecting data in hard to reach areas, creates a significant competitive advantage.
