How to through the local weather and air quality observation to enhance the capacity of urban climate
What are the implications of urban climate change
What is the city climate response capacity?How do you determine whether a city is ready to cope with the changing climate?Today, we will explore coping capacity of specific meaning, and your community preparations for what aspects should be improved to better cope with the challenge of different size, different kinds of environment.
As the change of climate, cities are faced with more and more bad weather and environmental threats.Heat waves caused by wildfires, heavy rains caused flooding and storm will endanger people's life, and may affect buildings, urban infrastructure and transport.
Bad weather can also cause sudden environmental events.The heavy rain will cause sewage system, for example, the overflow.If the storm-hit industrial facilities, they may suddenly release of dust and gas.
Urban climate response capacity refers to the key decision makers take the initiative to improve the relevant preparatory work, in order to protect the residents from sudden, extreme weather and environmental hazards.Accurate information can save lives and infrastructure.
What can we do to prepare?
Do the preparation work well, it is very important, because only in this way, the city weather is abnormal condition is released to the public or environmental incident early warning.As a result, local weather and air quality observation is that determines whether the current city will take the initiative to take measures to protect the key to the community.
Compact weather and air quality sensor, plug and play type weather stations and thunderstorms tracking software can provide the accurate hyper-local real-time observation data.These data can be used to alert citizens and officials in dangerous situation, to provide location-based services and improve the accuracy of weather forecasts.
Today's modern atmospheric monitoring solution (as probe) can provide a variety of information about the state of the atmosphere, such as mixing layer height and composition.For example,Visa, cloud probe CL61Can detect the smoke plume with the distinction between waterclouds, therefore can be successfully used to detect forest fires.
Compact weather and air quality sensor can help policy makers to develop key services, alerting the public to pay attention to the dangerous situation and protect important assets.Introduction of the technique of remote sensing to surface sensor is a key application, helps people to understand the ground air quality.
By combining instrumentation and data services (such asVisa, Thunderstorm ManagerLightning detection system), we can provide comprehensive local weather and air quality condition and efficient, real-time and operational data.
Make information within reach
Accurate measurement is the basis of the response capacity, relevant staff need to get data and to take appropriate action.Municipal government and policy makers, municipal and other urban service providers, residents and visitors can be predicted from the current and benefit the local weather and air quality condition.
No matter whether your city have to install and connect the sensor data infrastructure, even if you just starting in this aspect, visa can use professional knowledge through the cloud, local and API of the weather and air quality will be together and make the information easy to share and use.
