Reduce your environmental impact.
GroundCast, our state-of-the-art pavement surface monitoring device, delivers residual salt data, which means you use the optimal amount of treatment - no more, no less.
Easy, no maintenance installation.
Setting up the network is quick and easy with a wireless design and built-in cloud connectivity. No need to worry about power: Cast Sensors have minimum 3-year battery life.
Getting started with Wx Horizon is as easy as 1-2-3
How it works
Wx Horizon brings you pavement weather forecasts enhanced by integrated sensor measurements, radar, and alerts - all from one supplier. Get actionable pavement condition information at a price you can afford.
Atmospheric weather forecasts are useful. Targeted pavement forecasts are good. Ground truth observations are better.
Data-driven decision making.
QUALITY HARDWARE
Targeted pavement forecasts enhanced by ground truth observations and atmospheric forecasts are best.
CUSTOMER BENEFITS
All the information you need, in one place.
UNRIVALED ACCURACY
Powered by Vaisala Cast™ sensors
The best way to enhance local road weather forecasts is to get access to local high-quality measurements.
Cast Sensors are wireless, battery-powered, and always cloud-connected. You can place them virtually anywhere. This makes them an ideal solution for covering gaps in your observation network or an easy starting point if you don’t already have access to local observations.
Measurement data and enhanced road weather forecasts are automatically accessible through your Wx Horizon account.
INSTALL SENSORS
Install your Cast sensors at locations that matter most to you. Choose locations that are representative of the surrounding area and where weather events are challenging to manage.
ONBOARD + OBSERVE
Once you sign into your Wx Horizon account, your dashboard will begin to populate with observations and integrated forecast data from each of your Cast locations. Now you are ready to start making data-driven decisions.
Sign up for Wx Horizon now to immediately see pavement forecasts for your own road network.
LIMITED TIME OFFER
Join our research and experience Wx Horizon for free
We are looking for municipalities to experience Wx Horizon and provide feedback for our research initiative.
Fill out our form, and you may be selected to receive one year of Wx Horizon road weather forecasts, powered by a network of up to 20 local road sensors. This will give you critical data you need for winter maintenance operations, such as pavement temperature, grip, amount of residual treatment material, and the amount of ice and snow on your network.
The feedback and data collected in the initiative will be used in our research for sensor network optimization.
"Before we put in GroundCast sensors, we had drivers getting up at 5 a.m. to check conditions in the most remote parts of the road network. Now, we can reduce the number of inspections needed - a quick glance of the parameters with a laptop is sometimes all we need to make the best road treatment decisions. We've always trusted Vaisala technology for accurate weather data, and this is a great way to supplement our road observation network."
