In this paper, this ability is applied to learning the pattern of Global Positioning System (GPS)-based Precipitable Water Vapor (PWV) measurements over a period of 4 hours. The trained model was evaluated on more than 1500 hours of recorded data. It achieves a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.098 mm for a forecasting interval of 5 minutes in the future, and outperforms the naive approach for a lead-time of up to 40 minutes.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.15165v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2006.15165v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"forecasting-precipitable-water-vapor-using","repo_url":"https://github.com/jain15mayank/PWV-Forecasts-Using-LSTM","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"time-series-1","task_name":"Time Series"},{"task_slug":"time-series","task_name":"Time Series Analysis"},{"task_slug":"time-series-forecasting","task_name":"Time Series Forecasting"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
