We have developed various advanced scoring algorithms based on statistical methods to be incorporated into the Mine-Weather platform. This is the first among the three papers that we consider to start a discussion on the advanced methods, by setting up a conceptual framework that focuses all our thinking on weather forecast verification.
In this second series, we provide a detailed description of the weather scoring algorithms currently incorporated into the Mine-Weather system. It uses a number of scoring models based on statistical methods to verify weather attributes (temperature, precipitation, wind speed/gust, etc.) in the form of scores.
Macrosoft’s Mine-Weather is a flexible analysis platform designed for utilities to asses forecast accuracy under different weather conditions. Electric utilities have always been on a look out to assess the accuracy of their weather forecasts, as they need to plan out their activities and preparedness during an extreme event.
This White paper focuses on how Mine-Weather can be used to probe weather forecast accuracy during extreme weather conditions. From a business dependency perspective, extreme weather conditions are critical time periods for the forecasts to be accurate.
To add to the complexity, the sheer number of forecasting services and their variability in the accuracy of their forecasts by geography, forecast timeframe and weather parameter makes it hard for many companies to choose the correct forecast.
The goal of Mine-Weather is to provide analysts with a flexible analytical platform for verifying and comparing the accuracy of weather forecasts under a variety of different weather conditions.

We recommend to all of our clients who are looking to migrate their VFP application, to build a working proof-of-concept once the analysis phase is complete. In this paper, we demonstrate why building a small working proof-of-concept with a few screens can give you a deeper and better understanding of how your new application will work.
Creating automated test cases in VFP conversions is an important step that should not be overlooked or missed! In fact, Macrosoft has always embraced and put into practice the creation of automated test cases for new applications. Testing has been introduced into our Agile development process. These processes begin from the design of the new application through the final development phase.
Macrosoft has formalized the VFP Deep Dive – Migration Cost Reduction service as the first step in any VFP migration/modernization process. We highly recommend application rationalization for clients who lack clear application documentation or suspect there is unused code, modules, screens, or reports in their legacy VFP system. Rationalization enables you to find and categorize all major pieces of the VFP application, helping clients identify all important elements required to be included in a potential conversion.
