Microsoft's Aurora system offers global 10-day weather and 5-day air pollution (CO 2, NO, NO 2, SO 2, O 3, and particulates) forecasts with claimed accuracy similar to physics-based models, but at orders-or-magnitude lower cost. Aurora was trained on more than a million hours of data from six weather/climate models. [83] [84]
