When the network goes dark, your weather data shouldn't

Weather shapes every decision in the field, from artillery trajectory to whether a helicopter lifts at all. Yet most weather data starts at a centralized site and travels forward, and that pipeline fails exactly when conditions turn.

Vaisala TacMet® Tactical Meteorological Observation System puts the measurement where the mission is. It travels in transit cases, sets up in minutes with gloves on and full kit, and runs on solar power and onboard batteries. No network, no external feeds, no specialist operator.

More than 1,000 systems serve in over 40 countries, many in continuous field use for 15 to 20 years. Canada's Department of National Defence has deployed TacMet across all three services for more than 15 years, from Afghan sand to Arctic cold.

What you will learn  

• Why centralized weather data fails the units at the front
• How TacMet deploys in minutes at sites with no infrastructure
• How the basic and enhanced configurations differ, and which missions each serves
• How Canadian defense forces have relied on TacMet for over 15 years
