Weather & environmental intelligence for smart cities

Integrate local, actionable data to make our cities better places to live and work.

Instruments and insights for smart cities

Today’s smart cities are looking for a holistic approach to optimizing resources that maximize well-being. Bolstered by advanced technology used by smart city system developers, this approach focuses on innovation and collaboration.

We provide accurate, reliable instruments and insights that help you make fact-based decisions to improve your city. Our compact, robust weather and air quality sensors provide accurate and reliable data on the most important environmental parameters for your city.

Extreme weather can be risky, especially with approaching lightning. Local, actionable weather insights help decision-makers when public safety depends on their action — from buildings and outdoor recreation activities to worker safety and risk management for fires and explosions.

Dense Data Networks

It is easy to integrate multiple Vaisala sensors into smart city system networks to get numerous data points with dense, high-quality observation data. This gives you a detailed picture of weather and environmental conditions all around the city that can serve numerous applications.

Smart city system integration

For example, when co-located with an integrated smart city system, light poles and camera networks can measure everything from weather and air quality to water quality, environmental noise, and traffic for observations — automatically. Plugging the data into these kinds of networks opens many opportunities to increase weather awareness and resilience in cities.
