ARWeather: Weather Forecasting and Visualization using Augmented Reality

Weather Forecasting is the application of AI to predict the state of the atmosphere for a given location. Earlier, weather forecasting methods usually relied on observed patterns of events. Our ancestors predicted the next day weather based on the happenings of the previous day evening. However, those intuitive methods and predictions are not reliable. This paper depicts the design and implementation of an application for weather forecasting and visualization using Augmented Reality (AR), which can forecast climatic conditions, namely, such as rain, snow, sun, wind, and hail. This work deals with various real-world weather types and how they could be simulated using a mobile augmented reality system. Users can move freely inside the real world without limitations, experiencing the developed augmented objects. A visual change of the augmented reality weather conditions can be used as a supplement to train the simulations for search and rescue teams during catastrophic disasters.
