The Japan Weather Association announced that it will develop a technology to grasp and predict weather phenomena of 100 to 200 meters altitude at which Drone flies.
Drone is expected to be used for logistics, infrastructure inspection, disaster response, etc. However, for safe and efficient flight, grasp and predict weather information accurately, such as gusts, heavy rain, thunder, fog, etc. It becomes important. The association developed a technology to grasp and predict meteorological phenomena of altitude 100 to 200 meters that Drone flies and technology to provide weather information for drone. It is a policy to be used by the drone operation management system and drone operator. The research was adopted by applying to the project "Realization of Energy Saving Society in which Robot / Drones are active" of the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO), a national research and development corporation. We will conduct research from FY 2017 to FY 2007.
