Weather control

Cidatum Together with Encore Lab and Vintae Wines, they have successfully completed the “Weather Control: A predictive tool for climate parameters at the plot level”, funded through the 2021 Call for Proposals for Grants Established to Support Innovative Business Consortia with the Aim of Improving the Competitiveness of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises.

As a result of the work carried out on the project, a mathematical model based on machine learning techniques which substantially improves the regional model forecasts provided by state weather agencies at the regional level, so that This information can help you make better decisions regarding irrigation, treatments, and the organization of farm work.

The use of various data sources to predict climate variables over a short period of time It has been key to improving the accuracy of water balance models and disease risk models.

Furthermore, the project has made it possible to to strengthen innovation and technology transfer between two key sectors of La Rioja's ecosystem: the ICT and wine sectors.
