Real-Time Weather Monitoring
Total Situational Awareness. Proactive Risk Mitigation. Audit-Ready Downtime Defence.
Overview
Shield your workforce, protect your timelines
Unpredictable weather is one of the leading causes of costly project delays, structural hazards, and safety incidents across Australian civil and construction sites.
OmniSense deploys solar-powered, commercial-grade Automatic Weather Stations (AWS) to stream live microclimate telemetry directly to your site team — shielding your workforce and protecting your timelines.
Why choose OmniSense weather monitoring
- Site-Specific Precision: we install continuous 4G/Satellite-connected stations directly on your site.
- Defensible Inclement Weather Claims: eliminate disputes with developers and sub-contractors. Our NATA-traceable, high-resolution forensic data logs prove exact wind gusts and rainfall during contested downtime.
- Automated Early Warning System: real-time SMS and email alerts trigger before weather conditions breach safety limits — preventing crane accidents, heat illness, and site run-off breaches.
Automated Threshold Action Matrix
Alerts tied to your SWMS
Our cloud platform streams 1-minute interval data to your live dashboard and triggers site-wide alerts based on customised Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS).
| Parameter | Threshold Level | Trigger | Mandatory Site Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wind Gust | ≥ 38 km/h (20 kts) | Yellow | Re-evaluate crane lifting and light suspended loads. |
| Wind Gust | ≥ 54 km/h (29 kts) | Red | STOP CRANE LIFTS & HIGH-RISE WORK. Secure perimeter. |
| Heat (WBGT) | 28.0°C – 29.9°C | Yellow | Implement 45/15 min work-rest cycles & hydration checks. |
| Heat (WBGT) | ≥ 30.0°C | Red | SUSPEND STRENUOUS OUTDOOR WORK. Move to shaded areas. |
| Lightning | Within 10 km | Red | EVACUATE elevated structures, cranes, and open fields. |
| Rainfall | > 15 mm/hr | Yellow | Inspect site drainage, sediment basins, and ground stability. |
How It Works
Simple 4-phase deployment
- 01
Site Assessment & Mobilisation
Submit your project boundaries and high-risk work activities (e.g. tower cranes, mass concrete pours). Our engineers evaluate topographically exposed zones to select optimal sensor placement.
- 02
On-Site Installation & Setup
We install a solar-powered telemetry mast (3–10 m) with precision digital sensors: wind dynamics (speed, direction, 3-second peak gust), thermal stress (temp, humidity, calculated WBGT), precipitation (rain rate, accumulation, pressure), and optional co-located PM10/PM2.5 dust and noise modules.
- 03
Continuous Monitoring & Instant Alerts
Live 24/7 telemetry streams directly to your mobile devices, web dashboards and site supervisors. Automated alerts trigger immediately when safety thresholds are threatened.
- 04
Audit-Ready Compliance Reporting
Receive automated Daily Summary PDFs every morning at 06:00 AM detailing 24-hour highs, lows and safety breaches — providing instant legal backup for weather-related delays.
