Google uses AI to forecast lightning rainfall and flood risks
Google Research has developed an AI system that predicts flash floods with higher accuracy than traditional weather models. The system has been tested in multiple cities and is intended to assist with evacuations and disaster preparedness.
WHY IT MATTERS
Accurate flood forecasts can save lives and minimize economic losses during extreme weather. This demonstrates how AI is being practically applied for climate adaptation in urban areas.
