All information about MetGIS
It all started with university research projects. 10 years later, experts from Europe, South America and Japan had completed the development of the MetGIS algorithm. The combined expertise in meteorology, geographic information systems, software development, and snow research made extremely accurate forecasts possible. The quality of the forecasts was astounding in several verification studies. When the number of customers increased, MetGIS GmbH was established.
