Want Advance Notice When Pre-Release becomes Necessary?

Short-duration heavy rainfall is increasing, and the number of emergency trips to dams far from management offices is also increasing.
Additionally, the rising average age of dam managers and labor shortages require management with high tacit knowledge.

Available solutions

Weathernews' Emergency Response Support Service

Support on-site information gathering and decision-making based on watershed average rainfall predictions rather than relying on human experience.

Key Benefits

Provide watershed average rainfall predictions

By viewing predictions up to 72 hours ahead, you can use this for weekend shift adjustments and other purposes.

Furthermore, as long as conditions are met, repeated notifications every 6 hours enable shared awareness for maintaining staffing.
The same web screen allows viewing of actual 'river water levels,' 'live camera' information, and surrounding 'road traffic impact predictions,' enabling information unification among members and decision-making on one platform.
With long-range predictions up to 72 hours ahead, this can also be used for adjusting night and holiday shift schedules.

Want to know River Conditions during Consulting?

It's difficult to grasp the meteorological conditions of rivers where we undertake consulting work such as flow observation and lake patrol boat observation because they are far from the office.

Available solutions

Weathernews' Hydrology & Water Quality Consulting Support Service

Early detection of rain leading to increased flow and rising water levels, as well as strong winds near rivers.

Key Benefits

Application for staffing decisions

By understanding rain that will fall within the next 72 hours in advance, preliminary coordination with clients becomes possible before heading to the site.
Additionally, understanding detailed trends every 5 minutes at minimum allows for rough estimates of when flow peaks will occur at observation targets.
By installing the weather IoT observation sensor 'Soratena Pro,' it becomes possible to grasp actual site conditions from remote locations and make work performance decisions. Notifications based on actual conditions can also be set arbitrarily, enabling rapid decision-making.
