Hydra™ station and data management

Monitor your stations and sensors, manage observations and share data with the organisations you choose. Your hardware and the data it produces remain yours.

Manage your weather stations, data and service providers

Hydra™ brings connected weather stations, sensors, observations and historical records into one management platform. Monitor your network, investigate faults and share information with the organisations supporting your operations.

You retain full ownership of your hardware and the data it produces. Choose your maintenance company and meteorological bureau, decide what each can access and change providers as your requirements develop. Use Hydra with compatible existing equipment or as part of an OpenWeather Integrated Weather Solution.

  • Weather stations and sensors monitoring and control

    View your network on a map, check connectivity and investigate missing reports. Authorised engineers can use the operational functions available through the equipment’s supported interfaces.

  • Observations and history

    Review sensor readings, road conditions and historical trends. Compare periods, explore charts and download observations for further analysis.

  • Access for your chosen providers

    Give maintenance companies, meteorological bureaux and other organisations the access their roles require. Grant, change or withdraw permissions as responsibilities change.

  • Data sharing and integration

    Connect authorised observations to your IT systems, transport applications and chosen meteorological bureau. Share data through APIs and supported interfaces.

  • Freedom to expand

    Connect compatible stations and sensors from different manufacturers, including existing equipment. Extend coverage, add services and export your observation records as your needs develop.
