Alerting the population that lives or occasionally is situated in an urban area that is expected to be hit by one or several extreme weather events. SAEx –L advises on the actions people have to undertake according to the specific extreme weather phenomenon expected to happen and also, enables the connection of people at risk with rescue and relief teams.
Developed by Meteoalb Ltd
An integrated system provides the Signal of Atmosphere Extreme at the local scale and enables automatic dissemination of SAEx-L warning to SIM card holders who live or are occasionally located in the risk area by SMS and also a phone number making possible the connection of risked population with the rescue teams at the terrain.
See more information about this level and the TRL and SRL levels.
A dense enough network of automatic weather stations for monitoring a specific urban area and a high resolution numerical weather prediction model enable an accurate forecast of extreme weather phenomenon at least 48 hours in advance. In case an extreme weather signal is captured, the SAEx-L warning is available and enables automatic transmission to SIM card holders who live or are occasionally located in the risk area. SAEx-L also includes advises for appropriate risk-based actions and also a phone number, ready to respond during the entire extreme weather event and to connect the people under the risk to the rescue teams.
