Our technology
At the core of Whiffle’s innovation lies our breakthrough weather modelling technology. With a passion for precision and a commitment to pushing boundaries, we’ve developed a weather model that solves the complexities of the weather and harnesses weather intelligence to your advantage.
How does it work
Whiffle is revolutionizing numerical weather prediction by using cutting-edge computing technology to run the world’s highest resolution operational weather model. Our technology has the potential to deliver benefits in many economic sectors, but our primary focus has been on the renewable energy market.
Large scale weather data
Our integrated fine-scale weather forecasting system first uses a pre-processing engine to convert large-scale weather data into customised input field.
Multi core CPU/GPU engine
Our atmospheric simulations are crafted to run on massively parallel supercomputing platforms and are fully geared to exploit the spectacular acceleration offered by modern Graphical Processing Units (GPU’s).
100m resolution finecast
As a final step, results are ported to the post-processing engine that applies additional output statistics and prepares data for transfer or visualisation.
