CAMBRIDGE, MA — WeatherBuild®, Decision Support Solutions for the Construction Industry and Built Environment™, announces support for Weather Underground (www.wunderground.com) weather stations, as a part of the WeatherBuild History™ solution. Weather is one of the top three reasons for missed milestones in the construction industry and built environment, with negative impacts costing billions of dollars. WeatherBuild offers a suite of decision support solutions that empower contractors, owners and operators to improve situational awareness and make better-informed decisions about weather events, schedule impacts and probable outcomes.
Hyper-local weather history reports with claims management tools, WeatherBuild History includes: historical reports of actual weather data with event and impact analysis for claims; integration with weather stations, webcams and data loggers of actual outcomes; historical weather analysis for the geo-location of your project; and, activities and impacts based on standard construction activities and weather events. Further, WeatherBuild History gets data and images from a broad spectrum of weather stations, sensors and webcams to automatically and electronically log actual outcomes at your exact project location, as opposed to the nearest airport which can be hundreds of miles away.
Support for Weather Underground (www.wunderground.com) weather stations, as a part of the WeatherBuild History™ solution, strengthens WeatherBuild’s hyper-local weather history reports with claims management tools, for leading contractors, owners and operators in the construction industry and built environment. Automatically and electronically recording actual outcomes provides evidentiary or substantiating data, for risk management, claims management, and from time to time, dispute resolution for stakeholders across the asset or facility lifecycle from new construction to ongoing operations and maintenance (O&M).
As a part of WeatherBuild’s Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT) approach for Weather Controls® and weather risk management in the construction industry and built environment, WeatherBuild’s customers benefit by leveraging geographically-distributed networks, with over 250,000 stations, sensors and webcams, capturing and aggregating hyper-local weather and environmental data and images. Across the IIoT weather data and webcam image networks, compatible weather stations include numerous professional and “pro-sumer” models by AcuRite, Ambient Weather, Bloomsky, Davis, La Crosse, Netatmo, RainWise, and many others.
Weather Underground is a commercial weather service providing real-time weather information, and owned by The Weather Company, a subsidiary of IBM.
Headquartered in Cambridge, MA, WeatherBuild® offers a suite of decision support solutions that empower contractors, owners and operators to improve situational awareness and make better-informed decisions about weather events, schedule impacts and probable outcomes.
