Dual-Disk Design
The Scintec BLS2000 Large Aperture Scintillometer measures atmospheric turbulence, heat flux and crosswind over path lengths between 500 m and 12 km. As part of a meteorological station it can also be used to determine the evapotranspiration over extended areas.
A scintillometer senses turbulence between an optical transmitter and a receiver. The operation principle is based on the modulation of light by atmospheric refractive index fluctuations in the air. The phenomenon is called scintillation and is the reason why stars twinkle at night.
Compared to conventional turbulence measurements with point sensors, scintillometers gather spatially representative results with lower statistical scatter and shorter averaging times.
The Dual-Disk Design of the BLS2000 provides for instantaneous corrections of absorption fluctuations, saturation of scintillation and outer scale effects. This results in significantly higher data quality and increased measurement ranges. All BLS Series scintillometers use LED arrays. Wide emission angles virtually eliminate the need for transmitter alignment and maintain high data accuracy even when used on towers which are prone to vibration.

KEY POINTS:
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:
The Scintec windRASS™ upgrades the sodar models SFAS or MFAS to work in radio-acoustic mode for precise measurements of both wind and temperature. This differs from conventional RASS where radio-acoustic sounding is used for temperature measurements only.
With windRASS™, acoustic and electro-magnetic beams are emitted in vertical and tilted directions. The electromagnetic waves are backscattered at the acoustic waves and a Doppler analysis is performed. Wind and temperature are derived via their influence on the speed of sound. windRASS™ is the first wind and temperature profiler that works anywhere, anytime. It is immune to ground clutter and ambient noise, making it a perfect solution for urban or industrial environments. Since windRASS™ does not depend on the existence of atmospheric turbulence, it operates at full performance in the marine boundary layer (coastal sites), foggy conditions or calm nights, each characterized by low turbulence levels. In addition, windRASS™ is not compromised by precipitation.
The Extended-Sweep Inversion technique (ESI) significantly increases the signal-to-noise ratio and allows for measurement ranges far wider than those of traditional RASS systems.
windRASS™ is operated using APRun with extensive graphical display options and remote access support.

3D Scanning Wind Lidar
Product description
Functional features and advantages
MWS3000 is a compact all-solid-state micro-weather station that supports measurement of multiple factors such as temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind speed, wind direction, precipitation, UV and other factors. The overall design adopts the concept of modular, solid-state and digital sensors, which has reshaped the appearance structure of traditional automatic weather stations, and has made great breakthroughs in the protection and durability of the whole machine. The high-strength anti-ultraviolet ABS plastic alloy enables this product to be exposed to outdoor solar radiation for a long time, which brings more convenience to meteorological observation outdoor operations. It can be widely used in meteorology, civil aviation, marine, environmental protection, space research and other fields.
High sensitivity mechanical cup anemometer designed for the measurement of the horizontal component of the wind speed for site evaluation and the measurement of capacity characteristics of wind power systems as well as meteorological applications and environmental measurements.
Ideal for site assessment and power performance of Wind Turbine Generators
The Advanced First Class sensor is Class A, B and S accredited acc. IEC 61400-12-1 for site assessment and power performance of Wind Turbine Generators.
The sensor characteristics are optimised for dynamic behaviour, even in high turbulence intensities with minimal over-speeding and a low starting value. The sensor is available in a number of variants including digital and analogue outputs. Heated versions are available for use in regions prone to freezing.
The Scintec SLS40-A Scintillometer measures turbulence, heat flux and momentum flux by purely optical means. In combination with other meteorological sensors the system can determine latent heat flux or evaporation.
The SLS40-A has both built-in automatic beam steering and vibration correction. It is designed for operation on towers or other platforms which are prone to vibration or longterm-drift. Vibration effects are compensated by using the signal of four instead of two optical detectors.
Each SLS Series Scintillometer consists of a laser transmitter pointing at a receiver. Temperature fluctuations in the air cause variations of the light intensity captured at the receiver. The scintillometer evaluates such variations to yield turbulence information.
The line averaging over the optical path results in spatially representative data and outstanding temporal resolution – a critical edge over data collected from conventional point sensors. The scintillometer provides high sensitivity and accuracy – without mechanical flow distortion or any moving part.
The proprietary displaced-beam technique of the SLS Series Scintillometers opens up access to mechanical turbulence quantities (momentum flux, kinetic-energy dissipation rate) without need to feed in any external wind data.

Functional features and advantages
The BTD-350 Thunderstorm Detector is a standalone sensor that reliably detects the presence of all forms of lightning to a range of 83km. The unique quasi electrostatic operating principle gives the detector a very low false alarm rate and the ability to warn of the risk of overhead lightning.
The ability to reliably detect and range cloud-to-cloud lightning, which is typically much more common than cloud-to-ground strikes, makes the BTD-350 much more sensitive to the presence of storms compared to devices that rely on radio detection. The electrostatic operating principle allows the sensor to warn of the risk of overhead lightning before the first discharge occurs.
Virtually maintenance free in operation, the BTD-350 can either interface directly to an integrated system or be operated using the supplied PC compatible display and logging software. The optional warning relay module allows the sensor to automatically sound alarms whenever a storm approaches.
The Eiffel-type wind tunnel has no air recirculation. The blower is at the end of the tunnel in an outflow diffusor. In this procedure, the flow guidance happens by means of a smoothing chamber (with a rectifier and sieves) and a nozzle. This system is connected to a closed section of measurements. The closed section is indispensable as a consequence of the low pressure arising due the structure of the blower.
The main advantages of the Eiffel-type can be summarized as follows:
All wind tunnels are designed and manufactured by us in accordance with the requirements of the individual customer specifications.
X-Band Dual Polarization and Doppler
The WR-25XP is the flagship product of the ELDES’ X-Band mini radar family, characterized by a price/performance ratio that is unique on the market.
The capacity to operate in simultaneous dual-polarization and Doppler capabilities make WR-25XP an ideal instrument for the most advanced radar hydro-meteorological application, as well as for medium-scale civil protection uses.
Given its small size and weight, the WR-25XP can even be installed on a light trailer for quick relocation to areas open to hydrological risk, or to areas with high concentration of people for civil protection needs.
Its cluster networking ability allows the system coverage to be extended practically without limit. The resulting image produces mosaics, integrating the data collected by all the sensors making up the network.
Thanks to the use of the latest technology, as well as the capital, installation, and operating costs of WR-25XP radars networks, these are a very attractive alternatives to the traditional high-power, large-size, weather radar approach.
A powerful Linux Workstation, typically installed in the Radar Control Centre or near the radar itself, processes the polar data of the three-dimensional spaces containing the instances acquired by one or more radars. The result is the generation of a large number of reflectivity and Doppler products, usually only available with considerably more expensive weather radars.
Furthermore, by means of the differential parameters measured, thanks to dual polarization, a reliable classification of hydrometeors is possible. At the same time, the Doppler processing allows for instantaneous estimation of the turbulence velocity vectors.
The products can be displayed through a simple graphic user interface; the Metranet2, for immediate use, even by non–experts. The data and weather maps produced can be even displayed through WEB Clients, either supplied by ELDES or third parties. The WR-25XP can be installed in unattended stations as it can be remotely controlled, and it can transmit pre-processed data.
ELDES is based in Italy but thanks to our Service Department, supported by our Distributor network, we can easily reach all parts of the world, ensuring constant support and quick response times.
Gap filling, storm prevention, research, hydrology, transportation, harbour and airport activity, outdoor events… Anticipate the future with WR-25XP.

The ClusterTech Platform for Atmospheric Simulation (CPAS)
The ClusterTech Platform for Atmospheric Simulation (CPAS) is a cloud-based service platform which implements Customizable Unstructured Mesh Generation (CUMG) and Hierarchical Time-Stepping (HTS) on Model for Prediction Across Scales - Atmosphere (MPAS-A (v6.3)) to better serve the computational needs of numerical atmospheric model users.
Background - CPAS is developed based on MPAS-A and WRF
To achieve a balance between accuracy and computational cost, many Numerical Weather Prediction models (NWPs), such as Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF), adopt a set of rectangular grids where local refinement is achieved by nesting a high-resolution domain inside coarser grids. MPAS-A adopts spherical centroidal Voronoi tessellations (SCVTs) covering the globe, while local refinement is achieved using variable-resolution meshes. MPAS-A is a promising model for practical usages. However, MPAS-A uses a constant global timestep, determined by the size of the smallest mesh cell, which limits the resolution variability. This is because the existence of a high resolution region would make the computational resource requirements prohibitively large.
HTS - Arbitrary resolution variation
CPAS has relaxed this restriction by implementing an optional Hierarchical Time-Stepping (HTS) treatment in the MPAS-A (v6.3) dynamic core. Cells of different sizes can have different time step levels and hence the computational requirements are substantially reduced, particularly for large variations in resolution. This allows MPAS-A to be used for high-resolution regional/local forecast, instead of limited area models such as WRF (v3.9.1).
CUMG - 100% well-staggered mesh, zero obtuse Delaunay triangle
In contrast to MPAS-A's standard meshes with fixed shape, span and range of resolution variations, the Customizable Unstructured Mesh Generation (CUMG) enables local mesh refinement in arbitrary shape using user-defined horizontal resolution in any desired locations. Bespoke mesh generation can be done by simply drawing polygons on a map panel and setting the resolutions in the selected polygons. Our mesh generation algorithm have solved a well-known problem in generating SCVT with arbitrarily shaped refinement for MPAS' use - no obtuse Delaunay triangle. We guarantee the resulting meshes have perfect SCVT staggering.

Dual Disk Design.
The Scintec BLS900 Large Aperture Scintillometer measures atmospheric turbulence, heat flux and crosswind over path lengths between 100 m (with Path Reduction Aperture, otherwise 500 m) and 6000 m. As part of a meteorological station it can also be used to determine the evapotranspiration over extended areas.
A Scintillometer senses turbulence between an optical transmitter and a receiver. The operation principle is based on the modulation of light by atmospheric refractive index fluctuations in the air. The phenomenon is called scintillation and is the reason why stars twinkle at night.
Compared to conventional turbulence measurements with point sensors, scintillometers gather spatially representative results with lower statistical scatter and shorter averaging times.
The Dual-Disk Design of the BLS900 provides for instantaneous corrections of absorption fluctuations, saturation of scintillation and outer scale effects. This results in significantly higher data quality and increased measurement ranges. All BLS Series Scintillometers use LED arrays. Wide emission angles virtually eliminate the need for transmitter alignment and maintain high data accuracy even when used on towers which are prone to vibration.

PVC sheet piling systems are the new standard with many advantages compared to hard wood, concrete and steel sheet piling. Vinyl sheet piles are made of poly vinyl chloride also known as PVC: a material with excellent resistance to weather influences and it has a long service life. Moreover, the material will not be affected by natural forces occurring in the ground, rodents, and salt or fresh water. PVC sheet piling has a number of benefits over traditional steel timber or concrete piling, including, costs, durability, ease of handling and a reduced environmental impact.
The Mini Micro Pulse LiDAR (MiniMPL) is a small form factor, low-power, elastic backscatter lidar. The instrument is a ground-based, optical, remote-sensing system designed to determine the altitude of clouds and to detect atmospheric aerosols. Pulses of energy are transmitted into the atmosphere; the energy scattered back to the transceiver is collected and measured as a time-resolved signal, thereby detecting clouds and aerosols in real time. MPL and MiniMPL are the only LiDARs simultaneously approved for NASA MPLNET, US Dept of Energy ARM program, and EUMETNET.
APPLICATIONS
The Scintec BLS450 Large Aperture Scintillometer measures atmospheric turbulence and heat flux over path lengths between 100 m (with Path Reduction Aperture, otherwise 500 m) and 6000 m. As part of a meteorological station it can also be used to determine the evapotranspiration over extended areas.
A scintillometer senses turbulence between an optical transmitter and a receiver. The operation principle is based on the modulation of light by atmospheric refractive index fluctuations in the air. The phenomenon is called scintillation and is the reason why stars twinkle at night.
Compared to conventional turbulence measurements with point sensors, scintillometers gather spatially representative results with lower statistical scatter and shorter averaging times. As a double-ended remote sensing system, scintillometers also allow access to terrains like forest or water without need to install in-situ sensors.
Unlike other large aperture scintillometers, the Scintec BLS Series uses LED arrays which produce wide emission angles. The wide emission angle virtually eliminates the need for transmitter alignment and provides more accurate measurement results. In addition, it facilitates the use on towers which are often prone to vibration.

Key Applications:
Featuring the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Phase 3 LLWAS Algorithm
AWI utilizes the field tested NCAR Phase 3 LLWAS algorithm in order to deliver the safest and most reliable LLWAS system on the market today. This system has been deployed at hundreds of airfields around the world. A properly developed, sited, and functioning LLWAS system protects life and property from extremely hazardous wind shear and microburst conditions. AWI’s extensive experience in surface observation systems and sensor integration combined with our integrated display software, provides airports with an unsurpassed LLWAS system.
Detecting and Reporting Wind Shear and Microbursts
Operating aircraft during volatile wind shifts are critical environmental factors to successfully navigating a safe landing or take off. A strong headwind causes the pilot to push the aircraft nose down to effect the proper glide slope on final approach. When under wind shear or microburst conditions, in an instant that headwind can switch to an equally strong tail wind causing a dangerous loss of air speed. Having an early warning system that alerts the pilot of these dangerous conditions is essential for the safe operation of your airfield.

The CS100 is a Campbell Scientific version of Setra's model 278 barometer. It uses Setra’s Setraceram capacitive sensor and IC analog circuit to measure barometric pressure. The CS100 includes a 0.76 m (2.5 ft) cable and a terminal strip for data logger power and signal connections.
The CS100 is encased in a stainless-steel and polyester case fitted with an 1/8 in. barbed fitting for pressure connection. It includes an internal switching circuit that allows the data logger to power the barometer only during measurement, which reduces power usage.
The Model 8339 Laser Ceilometer measures8339 desert cloud height and thickness, in addition to vertical visibility. Unlike other ceilometers, the Model 8339 detects up to four cloud layers simultaneously to a distance of 25,000 vertical feet. Its precision makes it ideal for applications requiring the highest level of performance and reliability, such as aviation and meteorological studies.
In order to make these readings, a laser pulse is emitted into the atmosphere and back-scatter analyzed. Using the speed of light, the altitude of each cloud base and top is determined. Due to poorly defined borders or a sparse composition, some clouds are much more difficult to measure than others. Depending on the current and historical sky conditions, an adaptive algorithm determines the number of returns needed to maintain accuracy.
Accurate measurement of cloud height and thickness in all weather conditions, including heavy precipitation and low clouds, can cause serious errors in other ceilometers. AWI has applied proprietary algorithms and digital techniques developed over more than 20 years of cloud detection research and manufacturing, allowing the Model 8339 laser ceilometer to provide accurate information even in difficult circumstances.
Sensing circuits and optimization algorithms control the pulse frequency, output power and temperature of the laser itself in order to dramatically extend its life. The Model 8339 executes an array of self-tests during operation, which detect faults and reports them. These self-tests also identify the replaceable module associated with the fault, making trouble-shooting and repair as simple as possible.
Mobile version for ELDES WR-Class Weather Radar Systems
Climate change has led ELDES to engineer a further version for its Radar Systems, which can now be proposed not only as fixed installations, but also as mobile on trailer, opening a wider range of applications.
With mobility, ELDES systems (WR-10X – WR-25XP – WR-J) can be easily deployed for real-time weather observation during events in which the safety of operations and people is the first aspect to be taken into consideration; think for example to Sport Events or Leisure activities.
For Civil Protection purposes they can be used for weather monitoring for temporary structures and emergency control installations. In general, in all the situations in which a high-resolution observation, with the guarantee of an effective early-warning on a specific area, is required. Even if this area is already covered by Radar service, the increased resolution given by a local sensor, allows the right notice and the right level of information for a “mission-critical” approach.
At the same time, the WR-Mobile can be a valid tool in the Research/University sector to carry out traveling study campaigns on a specific territory, or always, in the field of Civil Protection and Meteorological Observation, to follow (and track!) significant events.
They can also be an alternative for the Radar coverage of territories without suitable infrastructures to host fixed installations, such as inaccessible areas, or in any case not reached by electricity or data connections.
The WR-Mobile solution is compliant with MIL standards for road and helicopter transportability and MIL tested for stress resistance.
The possibility of being customized with highly reflective adhesives, retractable awning for operator protection and sturdy anchorages ensures safe operation in all environments, even with strong winds. The WR-Mobile was designed to house an independent power generator, but it is also equipped with sockets for a power and data connection to existing networks.
A step forward to change, designed today to face the climatic challenges of tomorrow.
Key Features

This door has been tested to both 600mm flood height for standard PAS1188-1 applications but also to 1,400mm for specific high flood applications. In all tests zero leakage rates were recorded.
Lightweight and reusable radiosonde
Windsond is a miniature GPS radiosonde system by Sparv Embedded, whose focus on portability and low operating costs make its instruments perfect for frequent use in the field.
The Windsond radiosonde only needs a nine gram balloon and about 30 liters of helium for low altitude soundings, making it extremely portable. The standard Windsond system can track up to eight sondes per radio receiver. An extension of Windsond which supports more than 30 radiosondes simultaneously has made headlines in the USA, and Sparv has now extended this further, supporting over 100 sondes in the air.
We also offer Windsond as a “reusable” option equipped with dual cut-down mechanisms, strobe light and loudspeaker to ease recovery of the sonde. The unique hardware features in combination with special software attributes makes recovery of sondes very possible. We have customers launching the same sonde over ten times. Recovery of sondes works best for soundings where the sonde is cut down from the balloon below four kilometers altitude. The maximum altitude for Windsond is about nine kilometers.
The radiosondes are easily managed on the ground using one of our radio receivers connected to a laptop installed with the Windsond software. Receivers can connect to the laptop via USB or Bluetooth.
All the above mentioned features, in combination with the user-friendly software makes Windsond highly appreciated by its users.

The EE260 humidity and temperature probe has a dual heating system (sensing element and probe heating). This prevents condensation on the RH sensing element, the sensing head and the filter cap. The probe therefore provides precise and reliable measurement results even in the case of permanent high humidity.
Another benefit of the dual heating system is the very short response time and a fast recovery after condensation.
The E+E sensor coating improves the long-term stability and service life in dusty and corrosive environments.
Compact and Robust
The innovative enclosure of the EE260 combines a heated humidity sensing head and an additional temperature sensing element in a single probe.
Due to its compact design, the probe is compatible with commercially available rotationally symmetric sensor radiation shields.
The robust IP67 enclosure made of UV- and heat-resistant elastomer protects the internal electronics from environmental influences and mechanical damage.
Analogue and Digital
The EE260 probe provides the measured data simultaneously on two freely configurable voltage outputs and via the RS485 interface (Modbus RTU).
Based on the measured humidity and temperature values, the EE260 calculates further humidity-related quantities such as the dew point temperature, absolute humidity or mixing ratio.
Typical Applications
The WSD1 - Wind Speed and Direction sensor
The wind speed sensor consists of a low-inertia ABS cup assembly for fast response mounted on a dual ballrace-supported stainless steel shaft. The wind direction component of the sensor consists of a dynamically balanced wind vane operating a triple ballrace supported shaft and micro-torque potentiometer. The WSD1 produces a contact-closure pulse signal output, which means that most modern data capture units are compatible with these sensors with little or no interfacing. The benefit of this is precise and accurate measurements in all environments.

A radome functions as a protective cover for a radar or other type of antenna system. Radomes are optimized for minimal RF attenuation while offering structural, environmental, and visual protection from weather and other harmful events that an antenna system may encounter. Utilizing a radome allows for less maintenance and more up-time for your antenna system.
ITIRCS radome panels are constructed using a sandwich laminate. The laminate is tuned according to the structural and operational requirements of the site and the specific antenna operational frequencies and other electrical requirements. The radome is segmented into panels that are easy to transport and handle by installation personnel. During installation, the panels are bolted together from the interior using stainless steel hardware to complete the radome. The segmented sphere becomes watertight through a panel flange gasket and a sealant applied to the panel joints during installation. Our radomes are built to last, they have an expected service life of up to 20 years with minimal maintenance required by the end user.

MIRA-10 is a vertically pointing X-band radar specifically designed for the collection of high-quality radar Doppler spectra and moments of liquid and frozen hydrometeors. It uses a solid state amplifier for transmitting and operates either in pulse mode or in pulse compression mode. These modes can be chosen by the user depending on the required sensitivity, range resolution and lowest useable range gate.
In pulse mode it transmits pulses with a pulse length from 100 to 400 ns corresponding to a range resolution of 15 to 60 m. In pulse compression mode MIRA-10 transmits longer frequency modulated pulses. As the peak transmitting power is limited for the solid state amplifier used in the transmitter and the pulse repetition rate (PRF) is limited for preventing second trip echoes the average transmitting power and with it the sensitivity can only be increased by increasing the pulse length. By modulating the transmitted signal and correlating the receiving signal with the transmitted chirp, a higher sensitivity is achieved while the range resolution is retained. For generating the frequency modulated transmitting pulse MIRA-10 uses a Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS).

Proprietary data available for purchase
As the primary reseller for FLYHT’s TAMDAR and AMDAR-over-AFIRS data as well as FlightAware’s Mode S data, Synoptic is bringing these powerful boundary layer data sets to new users and applications worldwide.
Why Aircraft-Based Observations (ABO)?
ABO data has been shown to be one of the top five most important data sets (measured by impact per observation) for regional and global Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. This conclusion has been clearly demonstrated during the global COVID crisis, during which the decrease in aircraft-based data reduced global NWP accuracy by more than 20% in some analyses. These aircraft data provide tremendously valuable information in the vertical in the form of a sounding - vertical profiles of temperature, wind, and in TAMDAR’s case, moisture.
What is AMDAR?
The Aircraft Meteorological Data Relay (AMDAR) program was initiated by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and is now a global program that includes more than 40 commercial and cargo airlines. AMDAR uses the aircraft’s own installed sensors to measure wind (direction and speed) and temperature as well as altitude and GPS position during take-off, landing, and cruise. AMDAR data is transmitted to the ground for compilation using the aircraft’s VHF communications suite. Data is available in real-time to National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) agencies and to the sponsoring airline, and is available to all others on a 48-hour delay. For more information on the AMDAR program, please click here.
What is TAMDAR?
Synoptic partner FLYHT’s Tropospheric Airborne Meteorological Data Reporting (TAMDAR) system is currently installed on regional commercial aircraft from a dozen airlines serving North America, Asia, and Europe, providing tens of thousands of observations throughout the boundary layer on a daily basis. Using Iridium satellite communications, this groundbreaking sensor is an after-market install and measures atmospheric conditions during take-off, landing, and cruise phases of a flight. TAMDAR measures wind speed and wind direction, temperature, moisture, pressure, ice detection, and turbulence and transmits them to the ground, where they are available to subscribers in real-time. TAMDAR also acts as a flight tracking mechanism that records a GPS position in both time and space with every observation. For more information on TAMDAR, please click here.
What is AMDAR-over-AFIRS?
FLYHT’s proprietary Automated Flight Information Reporting System (AFIRS) is an Iridium-based satellite communication device that acquires and transmits aircraft operating data, including many aircraft operational parameters as well as wind and temperature measurements, and delivers that data to the ground in real-time. It is currently installed on regional commercial and cargo aircraft throughout North America, Europe, and Asia with some flights into South America, Africa, and Australia. AMDAR-over-AFIRS refers to the transmission of the measured wind and temperature data (the same as AMDAR reports) via AFIRS, with the two significant differences being the communications path and the fact that AMDAR-over-AFIRS data is available to non-NMHS subscribers immediately, without the 48-hour delay associated with AMDAR. For more information on AMDAR-over-AFIRS, please click here.
What is Mode S Aircraft Weather Data?
Synoptic partner FlightAware operates a global network of more than 20,000 terrestrial receivers that monitor ADS-B and Mode S transmissions from almost all modern commercial aircraft including airlines, cargo lines, and general aviation. Located along major air traffic corridors worldwide, these receivers include those owned and operated by FlightAware as well as its crowdsourced feeder network. These receivers track ADS-B or Mode S reports from the aircraft, which, when interrogated by properly configured air traffic control radars, include downlinked aircraft parameters such as ground speed, Mach number, and other aircraft specific information. Using WMO techniques that have been validated scientifically and proven operationally, these parameters can then be used to derive wind and temperature from more than 40,000 aircraft worldwide, providing upwards of 60,000 vertical profiles of the atmosphere daily. For more information on Mode S, please click here.
ABO DATA AND NUMERICAL WEATHER PREDICTION (NWP)
Numerous joint-collaborative studies between NOAA, NASA, the FAA, and the research community have been conducted to demonstrate the use and efficacy of ABO data in NWP. In some cases, ABO data can even be tailored to better support NWP. For instance, the vertical and temporal resolution for TAMDAR observations is completely adjustable, allowing for extremely high resolution data in the vertical during take-off and landing, where it has the most positive impact on NWP modeling. This yields a fully customizable solution allowing greater vertical and temporal frequency than either traditional AMDAR or radiosondes. TAMDAR, AMDAR-over-AFIRS, and Mode S data are all delivered and available in real-time. TAMDAR and AMDAR-over-AFIRS data go through rigorous quality control (both real-time and on the ground) to ensure they meet strict standards. As a newer data set, the formal evaluation of Mode S data by the US National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) is still in progress. The European meteorological community has embraced it and has set up a specialized center, the European Meteorological Aircraft Derived Data Center (EMADDC), to do further studies and implement the transition from research to operations. Beyond NWP, ABO data has use in machine learning/artificial intelligence as well as situational awareness both for forecasters and other user groups such as national security/emergency management, air quality, and airport operations.
SYNOPTIC ABO PARTNERS VS. RADIOSONDES
Since the late 1930s, the gold standard for upper-air data has been the balloon-launched radiosonde. Radiosondes continue to contribute valuable information, but they are now limited to twice daily launches at 00Z and 12Z at just 92 stations across the United States (including Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico), leaving large temporal and spatial gaps in data coverage. Synoptic’s ABO partners fill these gaps as each plane essentially becomes a radiosonde, gathering upper-air data during each portion of the flight (ascent, descent, and cruise). Soundings are collected every time a plane takes off and lands, which could be 15 or more times a day, yielding tens of thousands of soundings a day. Soundings are collected at every airport that an ABO partner equipped plane flies into or out of, not just at fixed locations like radiosonde launches. In addition, TAMDAR measures turbulence and icing, which a radiosonde does not. Radiosondes are costly to deploy and are usually one-use only equipment whereas aircraft can be used continuously for a decade or more. This leads to greater cost-savings for the data provider and data user alike. Combined, Synoptic’s ABO partners provide more than 5x the amount of data available via the traditional AMDAR program.

Enhanced forecasting possibilities for efficiency and safety
Weather Impact on Mining
The core of mining is to get value out of the ground. However, a threat for the mining industry comes from above. Severe weather like heavy precipitation, thunderstorms, and heavy winds can have a major impact on operation cycles and force temporary shutdowns of mining sites.
Thunderstorms with lightning and hail pose a risk for both human workers and working equipment. Strong winds can interrupt blasting operations. Heavy rain can disable access routes and close whole sites.
Not only open-cast mining but also open transport and embarkation of material from mining in general suffers from precipitation. It reduces maximum payload and thus shipping efficiency.
All in all, severe weather can have many negative impacts on mining, resulting in an unnecessary economic disadvantage.
Lack of radar data
The problem is, mines are often located in sparsely populated regions with lacking weather radar coverage. Forecasting is based on models which provide only a coarse spatial resolution of several kilometers and temporal resolution of several hours.
To reduce the negative impact of weather on mining, short-time forecasting is necessary and inevitably associated with the input data of a high resolution weather radar.
GAMIC X-band Radar fills the gap
While most weather services rely on S- and C-band weather radars due to their large coverage, the smaller and more cost-effective X-band radars have several advantages.
The GAMIC X-band weather radar systems GMWR offer high sensitivity and a high spatial resolution. This way they are able to detect even small but intense shower cells and provide highly reliable input data for nowcasting systems. Optionally, the dual polarization feature can provide additional information about hydrometeors, i.e. the kind of precipitation.
GMWR radar systems provide a compactness that allows flexible installation scenarios as well as transportable and even mobile radars, e.g. mounted on a trailer or truck. All these features make our GMWR radar systems the perfect basis for reliable and short-term weather forecasts to reduce downtime and increase safety of any mining site.

What is FloodFrame?
FloodFrame is an effective, discrete and affordable Property Flood Resilience (PFR) solution.
FloodFrame – how it works
FloodFrame is installed around the house or other building/asset, providing a hidden permanent flood resistance barrier. It activates automatically when the water level rises. FloodFrame does not require electricity and will activate as needed in case of flooding, even if no one is home.
FloodFrame consists of a heavy-duty waterproof cloth, customised to your house’s specifications. It is neatly stowed and concealed in a container, buried around the perimeter of your home, about 1 metre from the building itself.
If the flood waters rise and risk encroaching on your home, the mechanism automatically activates, releasing the cloth from its container. As the water level rises, its pressure causes the cloth to unfurl towards and up around the walls of your house. As FloodFrame is a tailor-made solution, we can ensure it automatically protects your home to the desired level, relative to flood risk in your area. It has an automatic release function when flood waters are detected, but FloodFrame can also be activated manually, should you wish to do so.
The heavy-duty cloth prevents the water from entering your house. The storage container buried around the perimeter, helps prevent the water from seeping into the house’s foundations.
After the cloth has been used during a flood, it is either rolled back or replaced, as needed.
The service-subscription includes an annual check up, so you can rest assured that everything is in optimal working order.

OSi’s ORG® (Optical Rain Gauge) is a superior tool for rain measurement. The ORG® is the only instrument available to measure true rain rate. This means you avoid the reading errors due to mechanical limitations, which plague other low-tech gauges.
No other rain sensor comes close to the ORG® in performance and features. Our scintillation technology has undisputed advantages over the competition.
From Antarctica to Saudi Arabia and from Switzerland to Australia, users worldwide rely upon OSi sensors. Our instruments can be found working for airports, transportation authorities (such as state DOT’s), businesses, municipalities, universities, research institutions, military, and other government agencies. Our customers include the NWS, FAA, MIT, NASA, USAF, and USGS. If your weather measurement needs involve hydrological profiling, research, or synoptic observation, OSi’s sensors will do the job.
OSi’s scintillation technology is the best method for optical measurement of rain. Falling rain causes beam intensity variations in the infrared light as it passes through the beam. These irregularities, known as scintillation, have characteristic patterns, which are detected by the sensor and converted to rain rate.
ORG®has a very tough, lightweight frame, which can withstand the rigors of the weather. Lens heaters keep the optical path clear of dew or condensation. The enclosure is rated NEMA-4 (IP 66). The instrument is easily installed using our U-bolt configuration to a vertical pole or horizontal bar. (No special mounting pole required.) ORG®reports rain rate in mm/hr. The output format is a common ASCII delimited data string, which is easily handled by a PC or Data Collection System.
OSi’s sensors have more than 200 million hours of proven field operation in all climates. MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) for OSi instruments is in excess of 45,000 hours. The ORG®operates unattended 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The instrument uses proprietary algorithms that eliminate the need for frequent analog calibration. Field calibration is no longer required. The sensor uses an Automatic Gain Control to compensate for signal loss caused by dirty lenses. The sensor also employs a comprehensive self-test that updates once per minute and reports any potential problems in the output message.

Today, data on localised weather, known as microclimates, is the new frontier for more precise and accurate weather forecasting. As a result, the collection of weather data is becoming increasingly smaller and gridded. In light of this, weather stations, which are the most convenient means of collecting weather data, are increasing in demand.
The SenseCAP ONE S900 9-in-1 Compact Weather Sensor can help you collect and monitor environmental and weather data, which are crucial in different application scenarios such as smart cities, agriculture, maritime ports and many different matrixed environments where accuracy is crucial. The SenseCAP ONE S900 is equipped with sensors to measure nine parameters: air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, light intensity, rainfall, pollution, PM2.5 & PM10, wind speed, and wind direction.
SenseCAP ONE is IP66 certified, and its strong robust features allows it to withstand even the toughest outdoor environments. Sensors to measure wind speed and wind direction use ultrasound instead of traditional mechanical 3-cup or vane anemometer. The advantage of using ultrasonic sensors is that reducing the movable parts can make the sensor less likely to break and thereby is easier to be maintained without any sacrifices in precision or manpower.
The SenseCAP ONE series uses the RS 485 (MODBUS-RTU) / 232 / 422 (Modbus) / SDI-12 communication protocol. Hence, the SenseCAP ONE compact weather sensor can be used with any datalogger that supports RS 485 (MODBUS-RTU) / 232 / 422 (Modbus) / SDI-12.

The BASTA is a cloud radar (95GHz) dedicated to cloud and fog observation. Unlike Pulsed Radars that allow excellent performances but are very expensive, The BASTA uses a less powerful (0,5W) transmitter turning the solution more affordable. Technology The lack of power of the transmitter is compensated by FMCW (frequency modulated continuous wave) Technology and associated signal processing treatment.
BASTA enables to obtain the vertical distribution of clouds and the hydrometeors sedimentation speed. Designed with several operating modes allowing vertical resolutions from 12.5 m to 100 m. Each resolution corresponds to a field of study, the 12,5m resolution is adapted to fog and precipitation studies, the 100 m mode is much more fitted for high clouds observation.
An intermediary mode is available. This innovative and brand new radar measures the reflected energy of the hydrometeors and can be linked to the water content of the cloud. The less the resolution is in distance the best the radar sensitivity will be. The Doppler capability of the instrument allows to measure the velocity of the hydrometeors. Last but not least it is also possible to assess the size of droplets and ice crystals.

COMPLETE THE WEATHER PICTURE
Our proprietary network of high-resolution radar creates seamless coverage for real-time information. With Radar as a Service (RaaS) from Climavision, there’s no need to purchase your own radar.
GET READY TO SEE MORE AND DO MORE
Extreme weather events are happening more often than ever before. The volatility of these flood, tornadic, frozen precipitation and even ash events put both people and businesses at risk. More accurate, timely forecasts and real-time weather data have never been more critical.
Lower-level atmospheric surveillance is critical to meteorologists and imperative for severe weather detection, forecasts, and warnings. While the U.S. is the gold-standard of radar networks, there are still gaps the network doesn’t cover completely, putting areas at risk for missed warnings and vital weather updates. In fact, because the earth is not flat, a significant percentage of the troposphere over the US is not being effectively observed.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Rapidam Tube is a temporary and recyclable flood defence that can protect a group of properties from flood risk. Easy to use, with an anti-rolling patented design and ergonomically designed handles, the dam is manufactured from high tensile PVC-coated polyester. Classified as water filled tube according to DEFRA classification of temporary flood barriers.
The unit is highly suitable for water authorities, councils, civil engineering contractors and for use in the reconstruction of waterways and rivers. Protecting properties, businesses and communities threatened by flood risk, the dam can be stored and quickly deployed upon notification of flood warning.
Rapidam Tube is rapidly assembled through laying out dams into the correct position and pumping floodwater into the appropriate inlet ports with the use of a hose. Once the breather port begins to overflow, the flood barrier is full and can be capped off, later deflating as the floodwater is emptied. Once the flood barrier is dry it is simply rolled away into storage until further notification of flood risk.
The defence is most effective as a temporary cofferdam when required to create a dry working area in the repair of canals, river banks and other water courses. Aquobex offers a sale or full deployment and recovery hire service through our partners. With competitive hire rates, the unit is a much more appropriate method than pile driving and the use of mechanical equipment near river courses.

By distilling the complex interactions between expected changes in sea levels, surge, storm intensity, land and sea surface temperatures, and pressure and precipitation patterns, ClimateScore Global pinpoints what decision-makers need to know: the depth of the water, the speed of the wind, the intensity of the heat and cold, and the probability of drought, wildfires, and hail. Those metrics, in turn, will drive damage and economic loss models and put a price on climate change.
Early Warning
for Flash Floods and Storms
Advanced Solutions for Early Warning
GEONICA implements advanced Early Warning systems focused on the following risk areas:
An Early Warning System (EWS) is a key element in reducing disaster risk. It avoids the loss of human life and reduces the economic and material impact of natural disasters. To be effective, Early Warning systems must disseminate alerts and warnings efficiently.
A complete and effective Early Warning System supports four main functions:
Risk analysis involves systematically collecting data and running risk assessments of predefined hazards and vulnerabilities. Monitoring and warning involves a study of the factors that point to impending disaster, as well as the methods used to detect these factors.
Dissemination and communication consist of the communication of information and the issuance of risk alerts so that they reach those who are in danger in a version that is clear and understandable. Finally, sufficient response capacity requires the creation of a national and community response plan, test plan, and fostering readiness to ensure that people know how to respond to warnings.

Don’t Compromise, Meet Technical and Business Priorities
Leading-edge organizations choose Open Compute Project (OCP)-based infrastructure so they can scale out cost-effectively. There is a strong argument for using OCP-based hardware in a data center: It is less expensive to buy and to maintain, reduces points of failure, is designed for more efficient power management, and significantly reduces security issues.
However, for teams trying to perform complex high-performance computing (HPC) or artificial intelligence (AI), OCP has been a challenge. Few vendors have the skills and experience to build server or rack designs that meet the complex, software-driven needs of HPC and AI. Among those that do, designs often do not address the power and cooling requirements of today’s fastest processors.
Fortunately, Penguin Computing™—an early adopter and supporter of OCP technology—has the solution: the Penguin Computing Tundra platform. The Tundra platform combines the capital and operating expense savings of OCP-based hardware with the latest processors for HPC and AI.

The ENIGMA IV signal processor consists of a powerful host PC (ENIGMA PC) and a 19″ companion device called IFD (Intermediate Frequency Digitizer). The IFD can be installed either in an IT rack or head-mounted behind the radar antenna. It can be used in any common weather radar installation.
The IFD controls the transmit timing of the connected radar by applying trigger signals and performing the data acqusition accordingly. It comes with three separate input channels for horizontal, vertical, and burst (transmit signal / reference) signal measurement which enable full dual polarization capability. The IF signal is digitized at an intermediate frequency of 60 MHz (other frequencies optional) and the radar echo data is tagged with corresponding time and elevation/azimuth angle information. For optimum sensitivity and dynamic range a digital filter is applied which matches the transmitted pulse length perfectly. The generated raw echo data is provided to the host PC through an optical fibre connection of 1 Gbit/s for further processing.
The ENIGMA IV signal processor is very versatile and can be used for magnetron, klystron, or solid-state radars. In case of non-solid-state radars, the IFD is able to measure the IF frequency and apply an AFC (automatic frequency control) for proper receiving. For solid-state radars the complete output signal is generated by the IFD utilizing pulse compression technology.
Powerful correction algorithms
To get the best out of your weather radar data, ENIGMA IV comes with powerful algorithms to ensure high data quality and reduced disturbances. Digital Doppler velocity processing enables more accurate velocity data and better clutter mitigation. The velocity based clutter filters provide 40 dB or better clutter rejection, resulting in less ground clutter. Dual polarization based rain and gas attenuation correction are inevitable for reliable rain rate retrievals, especially for sensitive X-band radars. Further data improvement features comprise the removal of multi-trip echoes, RF interferences, and sun spokes.
ENIGMA IV is highly configurable, including speckle remover (via reflectivity, velocity, spectrum width, or dual pol moment), thresholding (NOISE, CCOR, SIGPOW, RHOHV, SQI), and KDP interpolation.
New features for enhanced data
GAMIC’s signal processor ENIGMA IV just got better with some new features to get even more out of your data. Those new features include the following:
Comprehensive output moments
Besides typical single polarization radar moments reflectivity (Z), radial velocity (V), and spectral width (W), ENIGMA IV provides output of enhanced dual polarization moments which are essential for any contemporary processing and further usage of weather radar data. Those comprise ZDR, KDP, RHOHV, PHIDP, and much more. All radar moments are provided uncorrected and corrected.
For comprehensive data quality and signal analysis, ENIGMA IV serves some more output variables like signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), signal quality index (SQI), clutter power (CCOR), power spectrum (DFT), and more. For a non-exhaustive list of all ENIGMA IV output moments and further details, consider the ENIGMA IV datasheet.

Advanced Lightning Sensor
The LPS-200 Advanced Lightning Sensor with Digital Signal Processing is designed to bring the latest technology and precision to the market today. Offering LF/VHF dual-band operation, the LPS-200 processes lightning strokes from both cloud-to-ground (CG) and cloud lightning (CL) simultaneously.
Utilizing a high sensitivity, low noise wide-band receiver, state-of-the-art digital filters and equalizers, along with precision GPS time reference, the sensor is able to characterize and categorize the lightning stroke. Once identified, the LPS-200 initiates a TCP/IP message to the Central Analyser Processor (CAPTM) where the precise lightning location is calculated.
The LPS has enormous advantages over other lightning sensor designs, in particular those based on magnetic direction finding (MDF) which suffers from significant site introduced errors and consequent high siting costs. Precision lightning sensors used by GPATS do not monitor magnetic field signals as do Direction Finding (MDF) based sensors, therefore sensors have liberal siting criteria.
The LPS can be installed on existing structures, towers, and buildings where access to electric power and communications is readily at hand. TOA also offers remote site installation utilizing solar power. The LPS is also extremely adaptable in terms of communications; its design allows it to transmit data by telephone, network, internet, or radio as is deemed best suited to the requirement.

Jupiter FloodScore helps users prepare for potential flooding related to a changing climate. Our proprietary models capture the complex interaction among flood-generating factors. The resulting analyses probabilistically predict the expected flood level in any designated area for a specific asset as small as a loading dock or on-premise flood protection. Private and public sector organizations can make informed decisions to prevent asset damage and property loss, and even save lives.
The Impact of Flooding
Rising sea levels, more intense storms and heavier downpours related to climate change are contribung to increasingly severe and damaging floods. Coastal storms are likely to cause flooding over larger areas and prompt currently at-risk areas to flood more frequently. Heavier downpours can overwhelm existing infrastructure, causing flooding and impacng water quality. Low lying coastal areas are likely to experience more frequent tidal flooding. Understanding flood risks in advance of storms and over the longer term can help decision-makers prepare for the flood-related impacts of climate change.

The hydrogen generator MP8 is specifically designed for inflation of balloons in the upper air stations in meteorology.
Simple and reliable, it can operate whatever the climatic and environmental conditions.
It is able to support high fluctuations as well as sudden interruptions of the power supply. In case of prolonged mains failure, the generator will stay in stand-by and then will restart automatically without any assistance.
The electrolysis cell design allows generation of hydrogen at a pressure of 8 bars without compression device.
Designed in 1984 and commercialised since 1984, this advanced technology hydrogen generator produces hydrogen gas directly under pressure permitting to store the gas in a hydrogen vessel at 8 bars without any compression device.
Thanks to its design, this generator requires practically no maintenance because of its fully static operation. In 1994 the improvements performed to the power and control system have permitted to replace all electromechanical components by a system fully electronic in order to insure the full automatic starting and stopping sequences; the cooling mode being kept through natural air..
Completely autonomous and 100% automatic, this equipment with a recognized reliability is perfectly studied to the enclosed sites particularities taking account their geographic locations, the difficulty linked to the electrical power supply and the communications means.
Today, no similar system all over the world is able to produce hydrogen gas directly under pressure through monopolar system type.

The HYDRIX® weather radar proposed by NOVIMET is a specialized radar for rainfall measurement. Associated to the ZPHI® software, it offers the same precision as 11000 rain gauges spread over a radius of 60 km.
HYDRIX® radar operates at X band and possesses the Doppler and polarimetric capability. At X band, an accurate antenna resolution is obtained with a moderate antenna size (1.5 m diameter). Thus wind resistance (to 180 km/h) of the positioner may be achieved without radome. The interest of operating without radome is two fold:
The latest generation of HYDRIX radar embeds the whole radar electronics in the pedestal, which is airtight and cooled by an air-conditioning unit. Thus, the radar is fully protected against outdoor aggression such as dust salted fog or insects.

Accurate measurement of air temperature
Apogee Instruments’ fan-aspirated radiation shield works with several temperature and humidity sensors to provide research-grade measurements with minimal power consumption. It is ideal for solar-powered sites.
Rugged, Low-power Fan
The fan has an ingress protection (IP) rating of 55, virtually eliminating moisture and dust ingress. At full speed the power requirement is 1 W (80 mA at 12 V DC). To conserve power fan speed can be reduced, via pulse width modulation (PWM), to 0.3 W at night or when wind speed is greater than 3 m s-1 without loss of accuracy. If the fan is continuously operated at full speed lifetime is rated at 50,000 hours (5.7 years). The fan includes a tachometer, allowing RPM to be mounted to detect obstruction of the fan.
Aerodynamic Shape
The curved inlet facilitates the reduction of air into the shield through the Coandã effect (tendency of fluid to follow a convex surface). The tapered diameter of the internal surface enhances air velocity through the Venturi effect (reduction in fluid pressure after flowing through a constriction). Both effects contribute to more efficient air flow and allow for a lower power fan than other fan-aspirated radiation shields on the market.
Sensor Compatibility
Various humidity and temperature sensors work with the shield through the use of adapter plugs. Standard adapter plugs are available for the Apogee ST-110 thermistor, Apogee ST-300 PRT, and the EE08-SS air temperature/relative humidity probe. Upon request, custom plugs are also available for sensors such as the Vaisala HMP110, Campbell Scientific CS215, Rotronic HC2-S3, or a combination of temperature sensor and relative humidity probe. Please contact us to discuss options, and click here to view a guideline for custom adapter plug constraints.

MARWIS is the first road and runway weather sensor detecting road conditions, temperatures, friction and other parameters mobile and in real time from driving vehicles...
The mobile road weather sensor MARWIS turns vehicles into driving weather stations by detecting several critical road and runway weather parameters. It can be installed on vehicles with a distance of 1 - 2m above the surface and delivers information about temperatures, waterfilm heights, dew points, road conditions (dry, moist, wet, snow, ice), ice percentages, rel. humidity and friction with a frequency of up to 100 times per second.
It serves as an important decision support with regard to preventive gritting. Due to the open interface protocols, MARWIS can be easily integrated into existing winter maintenance monitoring networks. Similarly, the mobile road sensor can communicate directly with the control system on gritting vehicles. The measurement data output supports the protocol UMB binary.
Unreliable energy estimates have resulted in industry-wide systematic underproduction far more frequently than was realized.
Equity investors’ returns are extremely exposed to this risk considering their position in the capital structure. A Green Energy Revenue Guarantee (“G.E.R.G.”) can transfer future, uncertain PPA settlements from the energy buyer to coverage provider for a fixed agreed upon premium.
The purpose of the G.E.R.G is to reduce production risk thereby allowing sponsors to better optimize the capital stock of their assets. This in turn, can improve asset values, and allow the owner to make sharper, more competitive offers for PPA’s in the market.
The G.E.R.G guarantees up to 95% of P50 energy generation including, irradiance deficiency, lack of wind, excess snow, degradation, tracker issues, and installation problems.
The G.E.R.G places an investment grade “floor” on 95% of the remaining sources of uncertainty, stabilizing cashflow. This enables lenders to size debt based on the insured floor instead of a volatile projection. If the project is successful you have a profitable investment. If not, you have a guarantee of the revenue. For corporate buyers who do not want to hold this speculative exposure, this guarantee agreement enables them to exchange the uncertainty of future PPA settlement gains and losses for a single, fixed annual payment.
