Specialized fields
Government, field by field.

National observing infrastructure is many networks under one programme: surface weather and river stations, upper-air soundings, the geodetic frame and national time, radiation monitoring and space weather. Each field below has its own rules, instruments, radio, power and crew work, from the first order to a network the country runs itself.

01Specialized fields

Choose the field you work in.

Each field page sets out the operating context and hazards, what must be measured and under which rules, the stack from base unit to network, the work from order to operation, the data products and the cited sources.

Specialized field

National weather and hydrology networks

Automatic weather stations, rain gauges and river gauges run as one national network, sited, calibrated and reported to WMO rules so every ministry and neighbour can use the data.The full field →Specialized field

Upper-air soundings

Radiosonde stations that launch soundings on schedule, with ground receivers, gas handling and data checks run as part of the national observing programme.The full field →Specialized field

Geodetic reference and national timing

Continuously operating GNSS reference stations and time references that hold a country’s coordinates and clocks to the global frames every map, survey and network depends on.The full field →Specialized field

Environmental radiation monitoring

Gamma dose-rate stations across the country, reporting continuously to the national authority and its neighbours so that a release anywhere is seen at once.The full field →Specialized field

Space weather monitoring

Magnetometers and ionospheric receivers that measure geomagnetic storms and their effects on power grids, satellite navigation and radio, feeding national space weather services.The full field →

02Solution bundles

Start with one unit. Grow to a network.

The same systems at every scale, on the open protocol, so nothing you buy is replaced as you grow.

  1. 01

    Base unit

    One station or node, specified for this industry: instruments, power, enclosure and backhaul.

    Build a station →
  2. 02

    Site

    A surveyed, commissioned site with its timing, its links and the evidence file a buyer can audit.

    Plan a site →
  3. 03

    Fleet

    Many sites run as one service: one plan, one update path, one evidence trail, one service level.

  4. 04

    Network

    Fleets that federate with partner grids through the open protocol, owner by owner.
