Microsoft and Tomorrow.io collaborate for climate adaptation

Microsoft, in partnership with Tomorrow.io, the world leader in Weather and Climate Security, today announced a partnership to support governments, businesses, and farmers in Africa to adapt to the growing impact of climate change.

The collaboration will bring together the Microsoft Azure and Tomorrow.io’s proprietary weather intelligence technology to provide an innovative cloud-based solution for climate adaptation and early warnings, starting with African countries. The technology uses Tomorrow.io’s global coverage of near real-time data from its multi-sensor satellite constellation, together with an AI-powered, high resolution global weather model which will be deployed on Microsoft Azure’s High Performance Computing (HPC).

Microsoft and Tomorrow.io will partner with African governments, empowering existing meteorological agencies to deliver highly needed weather intelligence, early warning and climate information and become self-sustained organizations.
