WEATHERDESK PLUS
Elevate business planning with historical, observed and forecast information plus web applications and data services. Weather Data Layers delivers high-quality geospatial data at spatial resolutions ranging from approximately 14 sq km to as fine as about 1 sq km that updates every hour-far more frequent than typical weather models-and extends 14 days into the future. When weather conditions threaten operations or change the marketplace, WeatherDesk offers immediate risk assessment to inform decisions and minimize uncertainty. Because weather happens everywhere, Weather Data Layers enables advanced analytics that can more accurately assess the impacts of changing weather conditions and climate, previously difficult or impossible to accurately assess by relying solely on point-based forecasts. Until recently, many of these forecasts were for specific places or networks of point-based locations where weather sensors exist- often at airports. This enhancement enables commodity-trading firms to more accurately assess the impact of weather on potential natural resource utilization or crop health, or alert ride-hailing companies and transportation and logistics organizations to the risk of significant weather exposure.įor more than four decades, Maxar has been a trusted provider of high-quality weather forecasts over key global areas.

Previously, Christopher was a Board Member at Weather Risk Management Association and also held positions at MDA Information Systems.
