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 organisational and economic challenges, the organisers of sporting events are forced to deal with legal claims both before and after the events.

Precise weather data are thus an important asset in the safety management for sporting events.
