At the American Meteorological Society’s Annual Meeting, Nvidia announced the Earth-2 family of open models, positioning it as a fully open, accelerated set of tools for artificial intelligence weather and climate applications. The company described Earth-2 as a production-ready weather artificial intelligence software stack that brings together open models, libraries and frameworks to support forecasting and climate research.
Nvidia said the Earth-2 offering is designed as an integrated family of open models, libraries and frameworks, indicating that it targets both weather prediction and broader climate artificial intelligence workloads. By emphasizing that the Earth-2 stack is fully open and production-ready, Nvidia is signaling that these tools are intended for real-world deployment by researchers, meteorological agencies and developers working on operational forecasting systems.
According to Nvidia, the Earth-2 family is the world’s first fully open, production-ready weather artificial intelligence software stack, suggesting a focus on openness and accessibility for the meteorology and climate science communities. The launch at a major professional gathering for meteorologists underscores Nvidia’s aim to embed these open models and tools into existing scientific and operational workflows, providing an accelerated software foundation for advanced weather and climate artificial intelligence.
