Fields of application
Football
Professional arena, junior management center or the small amateur club. 6.5 million active players on 40,000 football pitches are waiting for more safety.
Construction / Industry / Occupational Health and Safety
Cost minimization in the event of bad weather-related service interruptions. Occupational safety, trust and safety when working outdoors - Made in Germany
public areas
On the town hall square or in the city park - warning of higher-threshold, potentially life-threatening dangers in 11,000 communities and 44,000 schools. Civil protection, close to the citizen and then when it is really necessary.
open air
Thunderstorms and storms are the omnipresent threat to over 50,000 open-air events in summer.
baths
Bathing season is thunderstorm season. 4,000 outdoor pools and thousands of monitored bathing lakes and beaches are particularly at risk. Today, lifeguards and supervisors have to decide and take responsibility for how to proceed if there is a risk of severe weather without valid data.
sports facilities
Currently, 60,000 public and private sports facilities are operated without individually specified thunderstorm behavior instructions. Many sports facilities are added, because the construction of free and open-air sports parks is the sports development trend of the future.
amusement parks
For 3,000 amusement and theme parks in Germany with 38.8 million visitors (as of 2017), visitor safety is a major challenge. When a thunderstorm threatens, the security center must be able to make the right decisions and instructions at all times.

golf
Tradition and modern safety technology go together perfectly. Transparency and information instead of chaos and uncertainty for 700 golf courses in Germany. The often quoted "personal responsibility of the players" is a legal error that can have fatal consequences for the operator in the event of an accident.
