RadarLab GIS
Incorporating WeatherTAP data in a GIS client

WeatherTAP's RadarLab GIS combines traditional GIS (Geographic Information Systems) features with WeatherTAP's RadarLab technology to produce a detailed and flexible weather analysis tool.

RadarLabGIS provides valuable information to the user by combining spatially accurate GIS data with geo-referenced radar information to produce a high resolution image that details exactly where severe weather is at, where it is going, and where it has been. This high resolution image is produced by combining four elements: a background, radar data, one or more layers of GIS information, and a layer containing storm tracks and custom locations. These four elements are superimposed to form a composite image.

A few of the RadarLab GIS features include:

• Storm tracks, storm attributes, distance/range rings
• Hi-resolution zooms of overlays and backgrounds
• Overlay radar data on satellite imagery, hi-res terrains maps
• Complete control over map and radar colors
• Full-screen monitor mode
• Automatic updates
• Import the popular ESRI shapefile format

RadarLab GIS storm tracks enable the user to view the current location of storm cells, plus a prediction of where the storm will be in 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes.

The custom colors and the storm attributes make it easy to identify the most severe storm cells with hail, severe hail, or tornadic vortex signatures.

A distance measuring feature allows users to instantly tell how far away severe weather is from a particular location. Just right click from the storm center to the desired location.

Best of all, RadarLab allows an unprecedented level of control of the weather presentation. For more information and to arrange a free demo of the product, e-mail our friendly staff today or call toll-free at 800-337-5263.
