[Presentation of Materials] Utilizing Walrus Information - Introductory Edition -

The humid rainy season has arrived, and many people may be thinking about measures against heavy rain, such as linear precipitation zones. However, it is easy to get distracted by the heavy rain and not fully grasp the threat of lightning. It is said that the voltage of a lightning strike can reach 100 million volts, which is equivalent to 1 million times that of household electricity. In Japan, it is reported that there are over 1 million lightning strikes annually, which increases the risk for professions that often work outdoors, such as civil engineering and construction. As a private weather company, we believe it is important to share knowledge related to weather with everyone, even in small ways. Therefore, we have created a guidebook titled "Preventing Lightning Damage! (Part 1) Basic Knowledge and Evacuation Action Guide." We encourage you to take a look and use it for ensuring safety at your workplace or as training material. *For more details, please visit our website or feel free to contact us.*

Sysmet will provide an easy-to-understand explanation of the basic knowledge about ocean and weather observation and forecasting, as well as the process of how information reaches you! We will explain the fundamental flow, starting from who in Japan observes and predicts weather and ocean information, to how it is processed before it reaches us. Furthermore, we will introduce how to obtain information to prevent accidents in the field, using wave conditions as an example. For more details, please download the PDF.
