Monitor meteorological disaster risks that cannot be captured with pinpoint accuracy in a designated area (surface) and issue alerts.
◆Guard any area with polygons! The site can set a designated area, and if a forecast is issued indicating that precipitation, wind speed, lightning, or tornado risk exceeds the set threshold within that area, an alert notification will be sent. For road and railway construction, the monitoring area will follow the construction section. For dam and river construction, it will support the decision to halt work due to precipitation or strong winds by monitoring watersheds, catchment areas, and upstream basins. ◆Guard at administrative boundaries! You can set administrative boundaries such as districts, towns, and prefectures as monitoring areas. (It is also possible to register multiple municipalities as a single area.) Along with the areas where warnings and advisories are issued, you can monitor heavy rain and strong winds within that area, enabling early safety measures and reporting actions on-site. ◆Guard step by step! With DeGuard, you can set multiple monitoring areas or establish thresholds with different levels within the same area. In river construction, you can set a wide catchment area as the first monitoring area and a basin close to the site as the second monitoring area. While the wide area may have a significant time lag, it prepares for rising water levels, and the area close to the site can quickly respond to the possibility of sudden increases in heavy rain.

basic information
**What is Degard?** Degard is a service that monitors precipitation, wind speed, and the risk of lightning and tornadoes in specific areas based on the forecast data from the pinpoint weather information "KIYOMASA PRO" for construction sites, and sends alert notifications. **Weather data that can be monitored:** - Precipitation for up to 60 minutes ahead: 1 km mesh, updated every 5 minutes - Precipitation for up to 36 hours ahead: 1 km mesh, updated every 30 minutes - Average wind speed for up to 36 hours ahead: 1 km mesh, updated every 30 minutes - Lightning risk for up to 60 minutes ahead: 1 km mesh, updated every 10 minutes - Tornado occurrence angle for up to 60 minutes ahead: 10 km mesh, updated every 10 minutes **Why is area-wide weather monitoring necessary?** The cause of heavy rain (guerrilla rain) and thunderstorms that occur in a short time is developed cumulonimbus clouds, which are relatively small-scale phenomena in the world of meteorology. Due to their size, which ranges from a few kilometers to several tens of kilometers, even using 1 km mesh forecasts to monitor multiple locations, it was not possible to completely capture the occurrence and development of clouds in the gaps between forecast points. By utilizing Degard, which enables area-wide monitoring, it has become possible to implement comprehensive safety measures.
