Dashboard Visualization
Dashboard Visualization provides access to current weather conditions and forecasts from a Summary page, dashboards, and an interactive map. Get notified of severe weather for your points of interest through alerts. Combine weather data, asset data, and custom weather queries to understand the impact that weather conditions can have on your business.
Summary page
On the Summary page in Figure 1, you can monitor points of interest that are dispersed across the world from a single page. The table displays the number of alerts at each location.
By using the slider on the timeline, move forward a couple of days to see which of your locations and assets are predicted to be impacted by weather events. Select a location on the page to open a custom dashboard for the specific location.
Custom dashboards
Build your own custom dashboards, as shown in Figure 2, to display weather data, asset data, and custom data for a location.
- Alerting panels are configured to show an alert when a data point exceeds a threshold. Alerts
are categorized as follows:
- Alerts that indicate when a current observation exceeds a threshold. For example, show an alert on a dashboard when cloud cover exceeds 75%.
- Alerts that notify you when a forecast exceeds threshold values. For example, on a cloud cover time series chart that shows cloud cover for the next 5 days, highlight those days where cloud cover is expected to exceed 75%. As well as showing the alert visually on the map through color coding, you can include a custom alert message on the panel.
- Non-alerting panels that display current conditions, hourly forecasts, or daily forecasts.
- An interactive map.
Interactive map
On the interactive weather map in Figure 3, you can monitor weather data for your points of interest that are dispersed around the world. Switch layers on a map to move between different views of the map, for example, move from satellite imagery to radar imagery.
Select the layer that best applies to the weather event that you are monitoring. For example, if a hurricane is forecasted, you might select the Precip accumulation layer to forecast how much rain is expected to be associated with the hurricane over the coming days.
Select seasonal outlooks to view seasonal forecasts up to seven months ahead.
Overlay extra weather data onto the initial layers that you selected on the map. For example, if you are examining the impact of a hurricane, you might show the wind stream to assess its impact on your key assets.
If Maximo Asset Management is integrated with Environmental Intelligence Suite, you can show asset data on the map. Showing your assets in your points of interest helps to assess the potential impact of weather conditions on your assets.
If you purchased industry solutions, you can add data from the add-on to the map.
