Enterprise API Use Cases
The inclusion of elevation data is particularly beneficial for environmental engineers. This precise, human-level data directly impacts ground-level operations, allowing engineers to generate quality, accurate analytics. FortyGuard models provide granular, near-surface temperature data sources, ensuring these analytics are based on accurate inputs.
This information is vital for correlating temperature data with safety measures, such as making cities cooler, preventing heat waves, guiding citizens to avoid high-risk locations or times for outdoor activities, aiding construction workers, and preventing the establishment of schools or hospitals in predicted high-risk heat zones. This comprehensive approach to environmental hazard identification and preemptive measures greatly enhances urban safety and planning.
