All information about MetGIS

It all began as part of university research projects. 10 years later, experts from Europe, South America and Japan had finished developing the MetGIS algorithm.
The combined specialist knowledge from the fields of meteorology, geographical information systems, software development and snow research made extremely accurate forecasts possible. The forecast quality was astounding in several verification studies. As more and more customers “came knocking”, MetGIS GmbH was founded.

“We enable the world to translate weather into decisions, actions opportunities.”

MetGIS enables better decisions, sensible measures and new opportunities with its ultra-precise weather forecasts. The high resolution of the forecasts – up to 30 meters – is achieved by combining detailed terrain data with state-of-the-art weather models. This makes MetGIS one of the best weather forecasting systems in the world.

As a spin-off of the University of Vienna, MetGIS is based on many years of interdisciplinary and international research projects.
The quality of the developed algorithm has been verified by several worldwide verification studies and is constantly being improved.
Numerous international customers – from weather portals and apps to road operators, ski resorts and open-cast mines – already rely on forecast maps, weather reports and smart interfaces (APIs) from MetGIS.
