All Nippon Airways (ANA) has implemented a turbulence prediction system developed by BlueWX.
Unlike traditional turbulence prediction methods based on standardized indicators, this system uses deep learning technology to analyze complex weather information and tens of thousands of reports from pilots over the past decade. It accurately captures features where turbulence might occur and predicts turbulence. The prediction model’s accuracy rate over Japan’s airspace was 86%.
The system was refined through a four-year evaluation process involving more than 2,500 ANA Group pilots and additional turbulence information obtained from airlines worldwide. It will now be sold to domestic and international airlines.
The project began in 2019 as a joint research initiative between ANA Holdings and Keio University, with BlueWX being established in July 2023 based on its outcomes.
