Real-Time Weather for GIS Users

Realtime Weather for GISTM

March 30, 2009 8:30-12:00 $125

Learn how to integrate realtime weather information into your GIS! Color weather radar, lightning strike locations, watches and warnings and many more weather layers can be viewed as overlays within ArcGIS and Google Earth. This class teaches how to integrate realtime weather data into HAZMAT plume modeling applications such as ALOHA and then display the results in GIS, so that resources-at-risk can be identified and an effective response can be planned and executed. The class is designed for both beginning and experienced GIS users, so there is something for everyone!

Since 1994, Waypoint Mapping has offered training for emerging geospatial technologies.

Students have included Federal, State and Local government agencies, U.S. and World Military organizations and Fortune 500 companies in the Oil & Gas, Pipeline, Utilities and Energy Industries.
