Site-specific risk assessment
At WeatherData, we work closely with you to plan and implement a weather risk
management solution that is tailored to your specific enterprise requirements.
Our experienced meteorologists and business consultants help you assess your
specific weather risks and business vulnerabilities. Based on our thorough
analysis, we devise a weather risk management plan that integrates with your
existing standard operating procedures (SOPs). From the start, we're with you
every step of the way.
SmartRAD Weather Information & Monitoring System
Once implemented, our weather information and monitoring system delivers the best
available weather information in real-time, in a way you can easily understand, from
sources such as the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), National Weather Service (NWS)
and the National Lightning Detection Network. With an intuitive, graphical interface,
you can quickly see the big picture—not just raw data—and a view that is
specific to your organization.
In one simple screen, you can quickly comprehend the current weather at each
facility, rail or highway mile that is pertinent to your business operations
and supply chain. You can also customize the interface to display and notify
you of critical thresholds such as temperature, precipitation, winds or lightning
strikes.
Redundant weather risk warning system
Around the clock, WeatherData meteorologists monitor weather conditions. Whenever
there is a chance that the weather could affect one or more of your locations, a
meteorologist personally assesses the situation and your pre-defined criteria to
determine the likelihood of weather impact. If necessary, the meteorologist
initiates our redundant warning system, which sets off alarms—delivered to you
according to your preference—that let you know when to take action.
If you don't acknowledge receipt of our warnings within one to two minutes of us
sending them, we use pre-determined escalation protocols and alternate warning
delivery methods to insure that you get the information in time to act on it.
24x7 access to meteorologists
We know that weather happens regardless of your business hours, so whenever you
want to discuss a warning or changing conditions, WeatherData's meteorologists
are available when and if you need them, at any time of day or night.
High availability with minimal impact on your infrastructure
With SmartRAD's weather information and monitoring system, you have no equipment
to maintain or technical staff to hire and train. WeatherData installs the dedicated
hardware and software components at your site and maintains them remotely so you
don't have to. WeatherData VPN or frame-relay networks connect you directly with
WeatherData, ensuring that you always have access to critical weather-related
information and warnings. Superior to the one-way, satellite-based communications
offered by others, these two-way communication channels let you acknowledge and
verify receipt of our warnings so that we can, if necessary, initiate alternate
warning protocols.
Metrics to measure success
Reporting tools let you assess the impact of weather on the safety of your people,
resources, earnings and cash flow so that you can measure the success of our
weather risk management and monitoring system and continue to successfully
manage the intersection of weather risk and the vulnerabilities of your business.
