Weathernews Inc announced that it had begun providing “weather pain forecasts” in its smartphone app, in order to prevent and counter body problems caused by weather changes.
This service predicts the timing of physical upset due to weather changes, called weather pain.
Based on a detailed analysis of symptom reports and barometric pressure data received from users of Weathernews, an independent indexing of barometric pressure change patterns that affect human biorhythm and human barometric pressure sensors and are likely to contribute to the onset of weather pain.
Left-hand: weather pains map across Japan. Right-hand: selected time (3-hour) based weather pains analytics.
In addition to obvious changes in atmospheric pressure, such as low pressure and the proximity of the typhoon, minute changes in air pressure that do not appear on the weather chart are considered, and the risk of developing weather pain is calculated at four scale levels for six-day period ahead.
The service is also co-developed with Dr. Jun Sato, a barometric medical expert, and can be used free of charge by everyone.
In addition to daily weather pain predictions, three-hourly weather pain predictions and changes in weather and air pressure can also be identified.
They can be used to review and analyze symptoms because they can be used as a reference for the timing of taking the drug, as well as for the data available for the past week.
The company will continue to use meteorological data and data analysis techniques to actively provide information that is useful for living.
