Hail and Extreme Weather Monitoring
The ICT International Hail monitoring system allows for the near real time detection and alerting of hail events, and full classing of hail size distribution.
Near real-time hail data serves critical functions in severe weather management, including issuing timely alerts and managing risks to assets effectively. Classifying hail size distribution is essential for various applications, including risk assessment, insurance pricing, infrastructure design, and meteorological research. This categorisation enables users to anticipate damage levels, refine insurance models, design resilient infrastructure, and enhance forecasting accuracy.
With the ability to classify hail size distribution, the ICT International Hail monitoring system enables users to anticipate damage levels, refine insurance models, design resilient infrastructure, and enhance forecasting accuracy.
ICT International Hail monitoring system includes:
- HF4 Hail Sensor for measurement of hailstone size, velocity, and intensity of impact. Its durable construction ensures long-term performance and minimal maintenance requirements.
- WindSonic 4 Sonic Anemometer for measurement of wind speed, wind gust speed and wind direction. The sensors industrial design, low power consumption, and resistance to icing, making it suitable for extreme weather monitoring applications.
- ATH-VPD for precision measurement of air temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure and including calculated values vapour pressure deficit, saturated vapour pressure and dew point temperature.
Sensors are supported by a DT80 Datataker, 4G modem, and ICT Internationals solar powered remote monitoring station (RMS).
All data collected by ICT International Hail monitoring system is managed within the Eratos cloud platform, which offers a range of features for storing, analysing, modelling and visualizing weather data.
