The Weather Chaser for Water Utilities

Rainfall over the catchment, not just at the gauge. Area-averaged rainfall estimates per subcatchment, live river heights and rain gauges for inflow events, and the long records behind storage planning.

How Water Utilities Teams Use It

Catchment Rainfall

Our rainfall estimation service returns area-averaged rainfall for your catchment and subcatchment polygons, weighted by how much of each radar cell lies inside, alongside per-timestep grids.

Inflow Events

Live radar, river heights and rain gauges in one place while an event is running, and the same records afterwards for the inflow review.

Records for Planning

Historical station observations, rainfall and river data with downloads support yield studies and storage planning.

Operations and Planning Teams

Organisation accounts put control-room operators and planners on the same subscription with one invoice.
