The never-ending growth in internet accessibility around the world along with numerous technological advancements comprising 5G, blockchain, cloud services, Internet of Things (IoT), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) among others have significantly boosted the economic growth in the last two decades. As of April 2021, there were more than 4.5 billion users that were actively using the internet globally. Moreover, the growth in ICT sector has significantly contributed towards GDP growth, labor productivity, and R&D spending among other transformations of economies in different nations of the globe. Furthermore, the production of goods and services in the ICT sector is also contributing to the economic growth and development. As per the statistics in the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development’s database, the ICT good exports (% of total good exports) globally grew from 10.816 in 2015 to 11.536 in 2019. In 2019, these exports in Hong Kong SAR, China amounted to 56.65%, 25.23% in East Asia & Pacific, 26.50% in China, 25.77% in Korea, Rep., 8.74% in the United States, and 35.01% in Vietnam. These are some of the important factors that are boosting the growth of the market.
Growth Drivers
Increasing Climate Change- Long-term shifts in temperature and weather patterns are referred to as climate change. These changes caused by natural processes, such as fluctuations in the solar cycle. According to the data provided by the National Centers for Environmental Information, the worldwide surface temperature in June 2022 was 0.87°C (1.57°F) above the 20th century estimate, the sixth highest in the 143-year record. This month was also 0.08°C (0.14°F) colder than the warmest June ever noted, which occurred in 2019.
Increasing Occurrences of Tropical Cyclones- Tropical cyclones carry one of the largest threats to property and human life, even in the early phases of their formation. They contain a variety of dangers that each have the potential to seriously harm people and property. As per a report, worldwide, around 5 tropical storms with winds >_ 39 mph have occurred in the month of June 2022.
Surge in Heavy Precipitation – The incidences of heavy rainfall or precipitation have been increasing on a global scale, which lead to the requirement of a precise prediction of such events. As per the data provided by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, by July 2022, global precipitation has grown at a rate of 0.04 inches per decade on average as of 1901, while precipitation in the contiguous 48 states has raised at a rate of 0.20 inches per decade.
Escalating Use of AI for Weather Forecasting- Since the researchers are utilizing varied ways of AI i.e., deep learning, machine learning, and neural networks to predict and analyze the weather conditions, the process of weather forecasting has become swift and cheaper. For instance, Deep Weather, a computer that costs around USD 10170 is efficient to make the same forecast in 100 milliseconds, as compared to the outdated way of weather forecasting, which takes three hours and is significantly more expensive.
The global weather forecasting system market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by end- use into agriculture, transportation, aviation, energy & utilities, marine, BFSI, meteorology, and weather service providers, out of which, aviation segment is projected to significantly grow over the forecast period owing to its large dependency on weather condition that result in rising number of flight delay and cancellation. For instance, in January 2022, a winter storm that was approaching the mid-Atlantic caused more than 3,305 globally and 1,905 aircraft in the US to be cancelled or delayed.
Regionally, the global weather forecasting system market is studied into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa region. Amongst these markets, the market in the Asia Pacific region is projected to hold the largest market share by the end of 2031, backed by the occurrences of most natural disasters, and the presence of various meteorological agencies. Within the last 30 years, around 2,848 natural disasters have struck the region.

June 1st, 2022: AccuWeather, Inc. announced the introduction of its AccuWeather API in association with API3. Using API3's Airnode, the AccuWeather API provides numerous weather-related endpoints directly to Web3 developers.
March 8th, 2022: All Weather Inc., an ADB SAFEGATE company, recently provided and inducted eight new Automated Weather Observing Systems (AWOS) in Alaska.
In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
The interest rates in the U.S. may be less sensitive in 2023 as compared to 2022; sigh of relief for businesses. Positive business sentiments, healthy business balance sheets, growth in construction spending (private construction value in 2022 stood at $1,429.2 billion, 11.7 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $1,279.5 billion spent in 2021, Residential construction in 2022 was $899.1 billion, up by 13.3 percent (±2.1 percent) from $793.7 billion in 2021, non-residential construction touched $530.1 billion, 9.1 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $485.8 billion in 2021.) showcases minimal impact of recession in the country.
Similarly, spiked spending in the European and major Asia economics including, India, China & Japan to showcase less impact on the global demand.
