Praedictus Climate Solutions

Developed software tools to provide real-time crop projections.

Praedictus Climate Solutions has developed new software tools that provide more accurate and timely projections of crop yields than current approaches. The Innovation Fund awarded the team $125,000 to validate their system with additional crops and in new geographies. The team was led by the Computation Institute's Joshua Elliott, Ian Foster, and David Kelly, alongside the support of colleague Robert Okabe. The team was supported by Innovation Fund Associates Annie Hu, Yu Kambe, and Matt Klomparens.
