   AXA uses NVIDIA Earth-2 to simulate 1,000 cyclone seasons for risk assessment

   AIAXA researchers used FourCastNet 3, an open global weather forecasting model in NVIDIA Earth-2, to generate more than 1,000 simulated cyclone seasons. The simulations show where cyclones travel, how often they occur, and how storms affect multiple regions in the same season. AXA can use these insights in its risk assessments and to target customer prevention efforts.

   NVIDIA Earth-2 open models power European weather and climate forecasting projects

   AINVIDIA adds StormScope EU, a regional version of its StormScope model trained on Europe weather and climate data, to the Earth-2 family of open AI models. It predicts cloud conditions across 16 Meteosat channels at 10-minute intervals using EUMETSAT satellite observations. European organizations including AXA, Vaisala Xweather, the University of Manchester, TotalEnergies and Space42 are adapting Earth-2 models for cyclone risk, lightning-enhanced forecasts, air-quality modeling, solar-energy forecasting and radar-based height estimation.
