3344 Telvent GIT has announced the completion of its MxVision WeatherSentry online platinum package. The company says that for the first time, users will be able to overlay Telvent's top-rated forecasting technology with colour-coded traffic speeds, live cameras and their own custom layers to provide the most comprehensive view of weather's impact on their operations.

Together with Telvent's high-resolution street-level mapping, this customised layering technology allows users to intersect weather and traffic conditions with their own geospatial boundaries and assets. Industries ranging from energy to transportation will experience enhanced situational awareness as they can anticipate and track weather's impact on operations and crews. For example, a public works department will be able to see on one convenient interface the weather radar, live conditions, and the impact the weather is having on the flow of traffic in their district. Telvant says that with this data, better decisions can be made regarding snow fighting efforts.
