Logistics companies face increasing operational strain as urban and regional heat intensifies. Road surfaces soften, driver fatigue rises, and cold-chain cargo — from pharmaceuticals to fresh produce — is exposed to temperature deviations that can breach safety thresholds. Routing and asset monitoring systems depend on generic weather feeds that overlook microclimate differences across cities, industrial corridors, and ports. This lack of granularity causes unplanned downtime, inefficient routing, and elevated risk for time-sensitive deliveries.
FortyGuard's Solution
FortyGuard’s Temperature API (starting at $79/month), part of our detailed heat analytics platform, delivers real-time and forecast heat intelligence measured at 2 meters above the ground with 10 m² spatial resolution. By integrating directly into fleet management, route optimization, and warehouse control systems, logistics operators can anticipate high-risk areas, adjust schedules, and mitigate cargo exposure before issues occur. The API’s environmental parameters also inform long-term asset planning for fleets and cold-chain facilities.
