With the increasing popularity of open-source platform Hadoop, the meteorological industryis available to create a Meteorological Cloud (MeteCloud) platform to store and deploy applications. Inthis paper, we propose an idea to build the MeteCloud platform for meteorological departments usingHadoop. We also present a backup policy for meteorological data. In addition, one kind of storageprocess of the meteorological A-format file is presented. Furthermore, we experiment with one-yearhistorical data on the platform by varying many related parameters such as the number of nodes,meteorological records and fields. Finally, the proposed MeteCloud platform proves to be efficient andsuitable for the storage of meteorological data.
