Plan a system that fits your site

Separate what is happening at your site from what may happen next. AWS measures conditions at the station. Forecast data describes expected conditions for an area. A combined screen helps a team compare them, but they are not interchangeable measurements.

  1. Step 1

    Choose the site measurements needed for your work, such as rain, wind, temperature or humidity. The sensor list, accuracy and measurement range belong to the selected models, not to every AWS installation.

  2. Step 2

    Review a suitable mounting location with clear exposure and safe service access. Buildings, trees or nearby heat sources can affect observations. Confirm power, communications and who is allowed to view the records.

  3. Step 3

    If forecasts are needed, agree the area, variables, update schedule and forecast period. Compare the timestamp and source of each reading before making work plans. Ask for a demonstration using a location relevant to you.

What to prepare before asking for a quote

  • Send the site location, photographs, activity to support and the weather conditions that affect it. Tell us whether you need local measurements, forecasts, historical records or a combination.
  • Agree the station count, sensor models, data ownership, export format and users. Ask which costs cover equipment, installation, data access, renewal and service; these can be separate parts of the quotation.

Care and ongoing costs

Keep rain collectors clear, check sensor mounting and inspect power and communications. Sensor checks follow the selected manufacturer's instructions. Record service dates so users can distinguish a weather change from an equipment problem.

Know the limits

A forecast is an estimate, not a guarantee at each point. Six-day and seven-day labels on older screens are not a promise of the same package. Confirm the currently available forecast period, grid size and update interval in the demonstration and written offer.

Questions before you order

Should I choose AWS or forecast data?

Choose AWS when you need measured conditions at a location. Choose forecast data when planning around expected weather over an area. Many projects use both, but the decision depends on your work, budget and the information already available.

Is online data access included forever?

Do not assume it. Confirm the access period, number of users, available exports, renewal cost and what happens to stored records when a subscription ends. Equipment purchase and data services should be clear before approval.
