Early warning systems
EARTH NETWORKS, Inc
Earth Networks has announced a partnership with the Regional Integrated Multi-Hazard Early Warning System for Africa and Asia (RIMES). The partnership will enable a multi-year collaboration program to enhance RIMES’s member state National Hydro-Meteorological Services (NMHS) capacity for early warning of severe weather.
The two organizations are working to improve access to reliable weather information and early warning capabilities in Africa and Asia. By contributing on-the-ground insights from its weather and lightning networks, Earth Networks is providing critical hyperlocal data to RIMES to help regional NMHS close weather observation gaps in real time and support more accurate forecasting.
Under the agreement, Earth Networks will collaborate with RIMES and its member states on technical options for commercial solutions to improve forecasting and alerting capabilities for severe weather events. In addition to providing training and development for RIMES staff, Earth Networks will offer comprehensive weather data, including real-time and historical lightning data, weather observations and forecasting, as well as live storm tracking and alerting through Sferic Maps and its companion app Sferic Mobile. RIMES will also work to integrate Earth Networks’ lightning data and alerting capabilities into its multi-hazard early warning platform.
