Aerostratospheric open scientific models (hub index)
Publisher: Aerostratospheric · Casey, Illinois
Role: Lightweight index / hub card pointing at the open sklearn suites — not a single bundled checkpoint.
This repo is a navigation surface. Load weights from the linked model repos (each ships models/*.joblib + config.json + metrics.json).
Model map
| Model | Role | Intended retrain (UTC) |
|---|---|---|
| uogw-scientific-suite | Anomaly / thermal / heat-index / Casey / precip / heat-stress | ~12:00 |
| uogw-weather-forecast | Multi-horizon Casey / UOGW surface forecast heads | ~12:15 |
| uogw-tornado-trends | SPC climatology + Midwest trend research | ~12:30 |
| gir-open-tier-suite | Open-tier public hazard helpers | ~20:00 |
Index metadata last aligned with suite train stamp 2026-09-18; hub package re-touched 2026-09-23 (Lewis sync). Weights were not re-trained on 2026-09-23.
What this hub is / is not
| Is | Is not |
|---|---|
| Open-science model directory for UOGW + GIR | Official forecast / warning authority |
| Pointers to public HF datasets and Git tips | Classified or restricted military tooling |
| Collaboration-friendly open-data framing | An in-kind ask or pad-invite channel |
How to use
Prefer the per-suite cards. Pattern:
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from pathlib import Path
import json, joblib
root = Path(snapshot_download("aerostratospheric/uogw-scientific-suite"))
cfg = json.loads((root / "config.json").read_text())
model = joblib.load(root / "models" / f"{cfg['heads'][0]}.joblib")
Companion datasets: uogw, gir, casey-openmeteo-hourly, spc-tornado-history.
