(China Daily) Weather information is valuable asset, as it allows individuals to
plan ahead, organizing their days around how it is going to look
outside.
Vincent C McDonald, chief international strategy officer (CISO) for
AccuWeather, said he was proud to provide exact forecasting information
to the people in China. He added that staff working for the company's
forecasting app, Weather China, were also trained in reading climate
changes and industry specifics.
In China, the commercial meteorological service market size would be
worth 10 billion yuan, Chinese edition of Bloomberg Businessweek said in
2014.
The commercial meteorological service output was only $600 million in
2015, and, according to a report by the China Meteorological
Administration (CMA) and the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), the
value of a customized meteorological service in China would surpass 200
billion yuan.
As the commercial meteorological service market continues to be
promising, a range of weather-related specialists have been attracted to
work in China – including Huafeng-AccuWeather, a weather information
service provider, formed by Huafeng meteorological media Group and the
world leading commercial weather service company, AccuWeather.
According to the company, it has established partnerships with
exclusive smartphone venders – such as Huawei, Oppo, Vivo and Samsung –
in order to provide climate change information to technological users
around the nation.
Huafeng-AccuWeather, supported by AccuWeather and the China
Meteorological Administration (CMA), has since expanded the service
available, providing quality information about early weather warnings,
and on-the-spot and daily weather predictions. The company also provides
customized information to clients, located in specific parts or streets
in China.
"We can't control the weather, but we can know what it is going to be
like and how it is going to affect our decisions", Vincent said.
