WindSeer: real-time volumetric wind prediction over complex terrain aboard a small uncrewed aerial vehicle.

Real-time high-resolution wind predictions are beneficial for various applications including safe crewed and uncrewed aviation. Current weather models require too much compute and lack the necessary predictive capabilities as they are valid only at the scale of multiple kilometers and hours - much lower spatial and temporal resolutions than these applications require. Our work demonstrates the ability to predict low-altitude time-averaged wind fields in real time on limited-compute devices, from only sparse measurement data.
