Abstract
Using Weather Data from the Geography NetworkTrack: Geography Network
Author(s): Clive Reece
DTN Weather Services provides GIS-based weather data on the Geography Network for use in Internet-enabled GIS solutions. Users can currently access near real-time weather radar, accumulated precipitation, surface data observations, climatic statistics, and hurricane/tropical storm tracks. Forecast data and historical event information will be added in the future. This paper will review current and planned GIS weather data offerings. Processes that add value to the original data will be discussed. We will also present examples of how this data can be incorporated into GIS-based decision support for public safety and business operations.
