INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Cloud-seeding startup Rainmaker is partnering with Atmo, an AI-powered meteorology startup, the companies exclusively told A Technology
NewsRoom.The two operate on complementary ends of the weather system: Atmo studies atmospheric patterns to forecast weather events, while
Rainmaker digests such data in an attempt to squeeze more precipitation out of weather systems.Under the partnership, Atmo will use its deep
learning models to help Rainmaker identify clouds that have potential for seeding
Rainmaker will contribute data from its proprietary radar system to determine how much rain the clouds produced.Rainmaker has been in the
augment snowpack and boost the amount of water that ends up in reservoirs in the summer
Modification Association, which Rainmaker has worked with previously, says that cloud seeding in the region has boosted precipitation by
the same way as clouds in mountainous regions like the Western U.S., Rauber said
