AbstractSolving Complex Problems with GIS and Advanced Meteorological Data Track: Climate and Weather Author(s): Ronald Sznaider The use of GIS, combined with new types of advanced and localized meteorological data sets, can be used to solve a wide range of complex business and safety issues. Examples to be demonstrated include improved fleet transportation routing efficiencies, more accurate energy industry load forecasting, precise analysis of hurricane damage potential, enhanced public safety with lightning monitoring, water district management, flash flood forecasting, and improved emergency response to possible airborne bioterrorist attack. The unique combination of GIS with appropriate meteorological data sets produces intriguing synergies and possibilities for the future.
