Weather Forecasting App For You: Camaliot

Many of us frequently check the weather forecast on our phones in hopes of seeing the weather warm up. Although these weather applications usually provide accurate information, they may provide incomplete or incorrect information a few days a week.

Especially these days when we expect the weather to warm up, many of us can be disappointed with the wrong information about these weather conditions. An application has been developed to prevent this and to enable everyone to access the most accurate predictions based on their location. Thanks to the application called Camaliot, we can now obtain more accurate data from our smartphones. So how?

Camaliot can forecast the weather on Android phones using signals from satellites.

This new app, funded by the European Space Agency, searches for general signals from satellite networks via your phone’s GPS data. These signals coming to your phone are noted by the satellite vehicle and the time it takes for the signals to reach your phone is calculated depending on where you are.

At the same time, these satellite signals are not only in the atmosphere, but also in the atmosphere. Changes in the ionosphere, which is the closest part of the Earth to space, can also be detected. With the help of Camaliot, it is aimed to gather information from several different satellite constellations from around the world. Using more satellites also means that the weather information coming to our phones is more accurate.
