Research & Development & Innovation

The companies Meteosim and Meteosim Truewind were born in a research group of the Department of Astronomy and Meteorology of the University of Barcelona. The field of activities of both both companies requires a constant investment in developing new applications and technologies.

R+D+i - Research, development and innovation in wind projects and atmospheric modeling

One of the fields of I&D&i is the detection of climate changes in the Iberian Peninsula using models to simulate different scenarios.

R&D&i

Currently there are many processes that depend upon the weather conditions. For every particular situation we must develop studies and propose answers according to its specifities. Meteosim understands the needs of every customer and works with him to propose, in each case, the best tool or service to optimize processes and projects.

Meteosim staff has a quite long experience in numerical weather prediction that goes back to the early 90s. Whilst most companies offer forecasts based on third-party numerical weather prediction models, Meteosim has its own models that can be configured to perform simulations all over the world with the detail required by any particular need.

Fire Departments, TV chanels, public weather services, America's Cup, universities... among many other companies and agencies, may confirm our potential in R&D&i to develop every service according to their requirements and using the latest scientific and technological developments.
