Precise weather forecasts for sporting events
Stricter requirements regarding safety and infrastructure pose central challenges for every sporting event. Many customers from the sports sector, e.g. Formula 1 Teams, rely on UBIMET’s highly precise weather data in order to better manage their sporting events.
Challenges for the sports sector
The requirements by international sports associations and the provisions regarding safety and infrastructure for sporting events continue to increase and become stricter. In addition to organizational and economic challenges, the organisers of sporting events are forced to deal with legal claims both before and after the events. Since many sporting events are held outdoors, the weather plays a central role for the safety of athletes and spectators. Precise weather data are thus an important asset in the safety management for sporting events.
