You cannot control the weather. But you can control how you respond to it.
Agriculture is without a doubt one of the most weather-depended industry sectors. Therefore having accurate, precise and reliable weather data is crucial for successful crop management and production. Is it time for planting, seeding, irrigating, harvesting, spraying, fertilizing? With METOS® solutions you will always know which step to take next.
WEATHER STATIONS, DATALOGGERS & SENSORS
A variety of products that measure the most important parameters for successful farming. Our weather stations can be customised with numerous sensors for soil moisture and temperature monitoring, frost monitoring, leaf wetness, and more.
LEARN MORE SOFTWARE
In-house developed iOS & Android software application, FieldClimate collects, calculates, analyses and graphically presents the data measured by the installations in the field.
LEARN MORE SERVICES & SOLUTIONS
With hardware in the field and software in your pocket, you get the unbeatable combination of solutions for planning your field activities. The data turn into: ● Forst & heat monitoring ● Disease models ● Irrigation management ● Work tracking & planning ● Nutrition management
and more.
LEARN MORE DISEASE MODELLING
A vast number of different plant diseases threaten the crops around the globe. They can cause a huge economic loss for farmers and a tremendous deficit in food supply. Our disease models help predict over 80 diseases before they occur and help prevent the worst from happening.
LEARN MORE Agriculture - Animal breeding
Early detection of any stress indicators is crucial to provide animal well-being and reacting to the slightest behavioral change is one of the best approaches to mitigating problems.
Smart technologies prove to be very helpful when it comes to animal breeding. Livestock is often kept in larger groups and the quality of living conditions can quickly change. Therefore, collecting data can help you prevent different stresses on your flock or herd.
Sensors help monitor the changes in health and behaviour of animals and are overall used to improve animals’ health, welfare, and performance.
Track the climatic conditions in the barn to prevent the reduction in herd productivity, lower the chances of health problems and detect any stress harmful to your animals.
USE CASE High relative humidity, a breeze of cold air in the building, or a cold main body will negatively influence the health of the pigs. Monitor the conditions in the barn to prevent health issues.
USE CASE Detect stress patterns and prevent health hazards of your flock. Have access to information on average weight gain per day, and whenever a shift in growth occurs, it is recognized and you can act upon it in the right way.

Smart cities, golf courses & other sports
Due to growing population and expansions of cities, accepting sustainable development practises in all aspects of living is essential. With data-collecting sensors cities can improve energy distribution, deliver effective services for traffic control, react on time to prevent weather-related events, such as floods and hail, and even help improve air quality.
CITY CLIMATE
Pessl Instruments is providing hardware for meteoblue’s city climate project. The system enables cities to develop an affordable infrastructure to precise measure, forecast, and model their city climate within less than a year. This creates a reliable information basis for the city planners, decision-makers, and citizens.
FLOOD WARNING
When the river level rises to a pre-set threshold, the METOS® station sends SMS warnings to the user. Thanks to the long battery life and reliable communication in extreme weather conditions, prevention, mitigation and flooding control are in your hands.
STADIUMS
The most modern stadium in Latin America, which has received more than 4 million fans since its opening, is now even more efficient than before. METOS® Brasil, a subsidiary of Pessl Instruments, installed a weather station to monitor climate in Allianz Parque arena with absolute precision.
GOLF COURSE IRRIGATION
The lack of good golf course irrigation can easily affect the quality of play, therefore, weather stations present an important aspect of the maintenance process on golf courses. With soil moisture levels and localised weather forecasts, you can avoid over and under irrigation and resource losses. Well-planned irrigation management reduces maintenance costs, increases efficiency, and makes irrigation more sustainable.
PARKSIRRIGATION
With the fast expansion of urban areas, parks represent an important part of the city. They are both gathering points and relaxation areas and can help improve the air quality of the city. One of the most important resources to maintain the park’s appearance is water. Smart irrigation solutions provide data to decide the exact amount of water that plants require, when they need it and where the water is required. Installing weather stations is a way to meet all the demands – from saving resources to helping decrease the impact of climate change.
ROADSAFETY
Up to 20% of all World’s road traffic accidents happen due to poor weather conditions. Heavy rains make the road surface slippery; mist, fog, and too bright sunlight lower the road visibility. Snow, ice, and frost severely reduce the friction, which with fast-breaking causes the vehicle to skid. Strategically located METOS® weather stations alongside the highways and other roads, and FieldClimate, the software for weather analytics, provides detailed information about the weather and helps determine road conditions and warn drivers to adjust their driving to the conditions down the road.
URBANGARDENING
Growing vegetables and fruits in an urban environment is expanding. And as with traditional gardening, urban one needs to meet plants’ demands as well. METOS® stations can be applied for indoor and rooftop gardening. They help with fully automatic smart irrigation and fertigation management, can start intelligent misting when air is too dry, and with the help of high-resolution cameras supported with AI software alert you when the plant protection or weeding is needed.
BUILDINGSAFETY
Real-time and localised weather data can also be used to ensure building safety – to offer cooling and ventilation control for example. Another important aspect to measure is snow depth on the flat rooftops of big facilities such as supermarkets. Data that Pessl Instruments Ultrasonic depth sensor gathers is analyzed in FieldClimate and with this information at hand, the building manager can act before the excess snow becomes too heavy and fractures or damages the roof completely.
