Observation Network Manager NM10
Efficiently Manage Your Weather Observations
Benefits
• Continuous reliable observationsto improve performance ofweather services and operations
• Shorter site visits and correctactions to save time and money
• Optimized lifetime support toachieve lower operational costsand investments
Vaisala Observation Network Manager NM10 enablesremote monitoring and control of your weatherobservation networks on one central, secure, andautomated platform.
Cost-Effective, ConfigurableOff-the-Shelf PlatformImplementing a scalable, flexiblemanagement solution with autonomoussystems and intelligent field devices ofdifferent brands and types which provideinterfaces for efficient integration withother products and systems will allowyou to optimize your network operations,improve safety and facilitate operation inremote locations.
Vaisala Observation Network ManagerNM10 enables remote monitoring andcontrol of your weather observationnetworks on one central, secure andautomated platform. An off-the-shelfsolution with extensive support andproven performance and functionalitysignificantly reduces the implementationtime and total lifetime costs, helping youstretch your budget further. Continuous
modernization and efficient upgradeshelp you utilize the most advancedtechnologies available to improveperformance now and in the future.
Real-Time Monitoring withAlerts and Remote DiagnosticsNM10 provides the ability to monitorindividual site status via secure webtechnologies and collect data 24/7 fromone central network in real time. It allowsyour team to remotely access andcontrol individual sites to fix theproblems faster and optimize yournetwork operation. With centralizedevent, alert and notification informationquicker reaction to network and sensorfailures, and faster problem identificationand solution deployment can beachieved for improved network uptimeand data availability. In addition,configure the layout and displayed datato clearly visualize and understand
precisely real-time weather conditionsthroughout your country or regionaffecting your operations andobservation site performance.
High Data Security, Availabilityand ValidityPerform automatic real-time data qualitycontrol and analytics services to feelconfident that you will get the high-quality observation data you need, whichis crucial when your data is used furtherin decision making for critical operationsand public safety. Redundant hot-standby multi-server or virtualenvironments can be used with long-term data archiving capabilities to ensurefurther continuous, uninterruptedoperation. Advanced data security anduser management capabilities areutilized avoid network vulnerability andhelping to mitigate the risks of intrusionand cyber threats.
Precisely understand current and past surface weatherand environmental conditions a!ecting your operationson a single or a group of sites.
Default desktop viewcustomizable by system administrator to include new pages and layouts for di!erent users.
Surface weather alarm information optionally also visualized on GIS map and list views.
Text view to list observations in numeric and string format.

NM10 is a stand-alone system installed incustomer premises on Windows or Linuxoperating systems and configuredindividually for each customer use. Thefigure shows the available maincomponents and interfaces of thesystem.
Data acquisition, processing, time, andnotification services component providesthe capabilities to receive air quality,surface, road and airport weatherobservations as well as events and alertsinformation from airport weather, upper-air sounding, weather radar and lightningdetection observation systems. Variety
of different communication protocolsand message formats can be used. Thecomponent is also able to synchronizetime, manage the post-collection of theobservations from the Vaisala automaticsurface weather stations and providecentral data quality control service.Email, visual and sound alarms andnotifications are available.
System events, state changes,observations and message reportsreceived from the observation sites arepersisted to a scalable databasemanagement system.
A browser-based user interface viaHTTPS restricted by username andpassword is provided for viewing theobservation data and for monitoring the
data quality and the status of thenetwork and its components. Geographicinformation system (GIS) map, list, sitedetails, wind rose, chart, text and reportwidgets are available to view real-timeand history observations, site statusesand their exact locations. Depending onthe site and its configuration, links areincluded for remote access to view anddiagnose the connected devices andsystems without the need to use anyadditional software on client PCs.
