To further improve the intraday weather forecasts Meteomatics has developed a unique drone technology to gather data from the lower atmosphere up to 3km above ground. These drones have been BVLOS certified and are used by several national meteorological services. Meteomatics is running these drones in an operational setup since 2016: So, more than 2’000 flight hours under BVLOS conditions have been achieved which corresponds to about 14’000 vertical soundings.
