Rainfall forecasting using parallel and distributed analytics approaches on big data clouds

Abstract

In cloud environment, big data analytics is a very innovative idea;Big data is defined as a very huge quantity of data. To extract meaning full value from it we need different technologies for analysis of the data. Big data Analytic is used to study pattern of historical data and the effect of changes of different parameters. Rainfall Forecasting has been a standout amongst the most intriguing and captivating space and it assumes a noteworthy part in meteorology and daily human life. Rainfall forecasting is used to estimate the probability of whether it will rain or not. Rainfall situation is the state of atmosphere at a given time in terms of different parameter like temperature, humidity and wind speed. Forecasting of rainfall is important to facilitate preparing for the finest and the nastiest of the climate. India is agrarian country so it is essential to know in advance about climate. This paper presents big data analytics for Rainfall forecasting and studies the advantage of using it. The algorithm which is used in this project is Time Series. The intention of time series analysis is generally in two ways, one is to recognize or representation the stochastic mechanisms that gives rise to an observed series and second is to predict or forecast the future value of an arrangement in light of the historical backdrop of that arrangement.

Forecasts are prepared for new data when the actual result may not be known until some future date. What’s to come is being anticipated, yet all earlier perceptions are quite often treated similarly.
