WindCube Scan for Maritime Long-range, 3D wind data for efficient, safe port operations. OVERVIEW OVERVIEW Image With modern, laser-based weather sensors, 3D spatial wind data providing detailed situational awareness can be captured in every corner of the port. WindCube® Scan is the industry’s tool of choice for providing precise, spatial wind data at ranges up to more than 10km. It can create a virtual dome around the port area (the equivalent of thousands of anemometers), allowing users to measure, understand, and act on current — and ever-changing — conditions to maximize safety, efficiency, and operational continuity. DOWNLOAD BROCHURE RIGHT DATA, RIGHT TIME RIGHT DATA, RIGHT TIME Image WindCube Scan provides full 3D scanning with ranges up to 3km, 6km, or 10km (depending on model), as well as several scanning patterns for the wind observations. Ports can depend on outstanding uptime, data availability, and comprehensive insights that exceed what traditional wind sensors can provide.
