Thousands of clients, from television stations to corporations, government agencies, and institutions, rely on weather services from DTN/Kavouras, Inc., delivered by satellite and the Internet to proprietary desktop systems, to alert the public to danger or make far-reaching decisions. In June 2000, DTN/Kavouras introduced a breakthrough addition to its Metwork FileServer - the ability to convert up-to-the-minute weather information directly into ESRI GIS formats on the fly. Many GIS-ready geo-referenced bitmap images of weather information are also available. A new DTN/Kavouras solution involving Internet server technology from SGI and GIS technology from ESRI, and integrated by Value-Added Resellers (VARs) such as GEOWAREHOUSE, allows its users to bring weather down to the ground in a uniquely practical way.
