How can Weatherzone keep windfarm staff and assets safe and efficiency high?  

With lightning strikes, severe weather, flood and fire posing risk to wind farms across Australia, we have tailored solutions that can significantly improve your oversight and response. 

Stormtracker, Weatherzone’s fully visualised Geographic Information System (GIS), plots ‘live’ lightning strikes, aged to 60 mins and mapped over your farm. This provides enhanced spatial awareness and understanding of the potential threat of storm activity to your operations and valuable assets. 

Our proactive alerting systems can be configured to your requirements, aligning with local site needs, procedures and legislation.  Our team of meteorologists and data scientists are there, every step of the way, to provide you with tailored insights.
