Precipitation Extrapolation

Precipitation Extrapolation is a meteorological nowcasting technique that belongs to the class of spatiotemporal prediction methods, distinguished by its reliance on the advection of observed precipitation patterns using motion vectors derived from consecutive radar or satellite images to forecast short-term precipitation evolution.
