MIND - Integrated Meteorology & Nowcasting for Decision-Makers
Specialized in the
production of mission-critical meteorology software and systems, IACIT
developed MIND - Meteorological Integrated & Nowcasting for
Decision-making.
MIND is an intelligent
system that facilitates the management and use of large volumes of
meteorological data and different types of sensors during operational
meteorological activities. The system diagnoses the meteorological context and
generates warnings about event areas that require attention.
MIND offers several
resources for data analysis and exploration, which help to provide a quick
response in an operational environment.
In this way, MIND assists
natural disaster prevention operations, air traffic control, civil and military
operations planning, agribusiness, oil and gas operations, as well as the
management of water and energy resources.
With a user-friendly and
multilingual interface, MIND is a complete integrated situational awareness
system for meteorological centers. Its flexibility allows interoperability with
other meteorological systems.
All system functionality
and its users are easily managed by intuitive administrative tools, which also
assist in issuing reports and visual alerts.
Equipped with an advanced
GIS platform, products can be viewed in customizable layers and in Mosaic
format, with recording and playback capabilities, as well as video wall
compatibility.
In the ATC version, MIND
works as a Command and Intelligence platform for Air Traffic Control Centers,
generating warnings about conditions that may affect aircraft in flight, as
well as landing and takeoff operations.
Among the automatic alerts
generated are Preventive Route Deviation, Severe Convective Weather Alerts,
Turbulence, Aeronautical Messages, in addition to various information resulting
from the fusion of data from the available sensors.
In addition to alerts, the system has tools that streamline and automate forecasting activities for Aeronautical Meteorologists, such as METAR, TAF, SIGMET and VOLMET.
