WeatherHawk in hospitality.....

If you manage a hotel, bed & breakfast Inn, private club, resort, vacation rental complex, tourist attraction, sports team, or any leisure end point property, a WeatherHawk can be a vital part of your location marketing and guest information programs. WeatherHawk can provide your guests with the local weather information they need both before and after they arrive.

Real-time weather reporting for guests

Weather-reporting services can help the public with long-distance travel planning, but they can’t tell your guests about the local weather conditions at your site. Leisure-activity consumers want accurate, up-to-the-minute data about the weather at their destination, not at the nearest government weather-monitoring site.

So if the powder is coming down fast and thick at your ski resort, if your marina is experiencing steady winds, if the sun is out and the beach is inviting, you can let visitors know with a WeatherHawk.

Network enabled

The WeatherHawk software license is linked to your WeatherHawk, not the host computer, so install it on every computer in your network to display weather information from a single weather station. No expensive site license, or separate single user licenses are necessary.

The WeatherHawk will automatically stream information to your website for guests, or potential visitors to read. If you connect a WeatherHawk to a webcam, they can even log on and see the conditions for themselves. Or, for a more personal touch, your reservations operator can consult the WeatherHawk on her screen during a phone conversation with a visitor. WeatherHawk VWS software even has a WeatherVoice module that turns your host PC into a dialup weather information center.

Leisure industry businesses — resorts, beach clubs, casinos, and hotels — must usually accept the third party advertising that is embedded in free Net-based weather information. But this information often includes ads for and links to competing sites. And if local weather conditions deteriorate, it can be hard to turn the weather data off on your website.

The WeatherHawk is a versatile, site controlled marketing tool for travel and leisure end destinations.

Long reach and proven ruggedness

The powerful Wireless WeatherHawk can be sited at the best monitoring location, up to 1/2 mile from the host computer. A range of up to seven miles is even possible using an optional directional antenna. Call WeatherHawk if you need this long range configuration.

Don’t worry about taking the WeatherHawk to remote locations. It’s built tough to take outdoor use. WeatherHawk is manufactured with rugged industrial grade sensors and powerful spread-spectrum radios (wireless versions) that are normally found only with professional and industrial weather stations. WeatherHawk spread-spectrum radios are available in three public use frequencies, enabling unlicensed use at most locations around the world.

WeatherHawk’s quality is assured with high level manufacturing processes, such as conformally coated electronics. This process protects your investment and ensures years of reliable, consistent performance. In addition, all sensors subject to wear over time can be replaced with plug-in, pre-tested components, enabling quick local maintenance or repair.

Connecting to the Internet

WeatherHawk’s optional Internet-enabled software comes with an integrated Website Builder feature so that you can post your data on your own website, or a public site.
