Drawing on industry expertise from Jeff Gawrych, Utility Solutions Advisor at WWG, this article explores how Liberty Utilities (CalPeco Electric) LLC (“Liberty”) uses real-time data from R.M. Young Company and Western Weather Group to modernize vegetation management....
Deciding between snow depth sensors can be difficult. This guide was created to help you make the right choice for your application with confidence, covering the specs that actually predict field performance and how to tell a vendor's marketing language apart from a...
What drives someone to spend decades chasing storms? And what can those experiences teach us about weather, data, and the tools we rely on to understand it? In this conversation, we sit down with retired storm chaser RJ Evans, whose journey spans from early...
When environmental data gets used in a regulatory filing, a legal proceeding, or a procurement audit, the question is never just whether the instrument was accurate. The question is: how do you know, and can you prove it? That's exactly what calibration traceability...
When weather data drives decisions that affect public safety, infrastructure, or regulatory compliance, the selection of the instrument used for collecting that data is not a simple commodity purchase. It is a liability decision. Consumer weather stations have never...
Snow depth measurement is a well-established problem with two dominant sensing technologies: ultrasonic and LiDAR. Under calm conditions, both produce reliable data. The distinction becomes operationally significant during active precipitation, precisely when accurate...
High mountain regions play a critical role in global water resources, yet they remain among the least observed environments on Earth. Extreme winds, low air density, intense cold, and limited access make long-term weather monitoring exceptionally difficult, leaving...
SNOdar just got better. R.M. Young's engineering team took customer feedback seriously, overhauling the app, improving SDI-12 reliability, and refining the hardware. In this webinar, we're walking through exactly what changed, why it matters, and how a LiDAR-based...
Accurate snow depth data is a critical input for a wide range of industries, from avalanche forecasting and SNOTEL monitoring to DOT road management, ski resort operations, and scientific research. Getting that data reliably, especially during active storm events, has...
Accurate wind data starts with a properly calibrated instrument. Whether you're supporting a national weather service, conducting climate research, or optimizing a wind energy site, the quality of your measurements depends entirely on the precision of your sensors—and...
