Crafting the Ultimate Outdoor Adventure Forecast Using MySQL HeatWave AI and IoT

Facing the challenge of unexpected rain during hikes in the Pacific Northwest, I developed a high-precision, near-term, hyper-local rain forecast solution. Leveraging Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, MySQL HeatWave AutoML capabilities, and real-time weather station data from Weather Underground (WU), this AI-powered forecast offers precise rain predictions up to six hours ahead, accessible via smartphone using any weather station in the WU network. This presentation outlines the development of this application, emphasizing the use of Oracle technologies and AI/ML to enhance outdoor experiences by providing reliable weather predictions, allowing hikers to stay dry.
