Being able to accurately estimate a hurricane’s intensity is essential for disaster preparedness and response. NASA's deep learning-based Hurricane Intensity Estimator is an online platform that demonstrates the use of a machine learning model for estimating the wind speed of hurricanes.
Developed by NASA’s Office of Data Science and Informatics (ODSI), formerly the Interagency Implementation and Advanced Concepts Team (IMPACT), the Hurricane Intensity Estimator uses artificial intelligence technologies and cloud computing resources to provide automated and accurate estimation of tropical cyclone intensity.
