NiMet SET TO UPGRADE, LAUNCH WEATHER PRESENTATION INFRASTRUCTURE
The Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NiMet) has disclosed plans to upgrade its weather presentation infrastructure to cutting-edge 4K resolution.
The initiative which would be launched in November 2024 is being implemented in partnership with global technology leader Chyron.
The initiative when launched is expected to enhance NiMet’s weather presentation capabilities.
A statement in Abuja on Sunday by the Agency stated that NiMet will integrate Chyron’s state-of-the-art weather presentation solutions, enhanced processing power, dynamic real-time graphics, and high-definition displays to its broadcasts.
It explained that the move to 4K resolution will ensure sharper, more detailed visuals, and give Nigerians access to superior clear, accurate, and reliable weather data.
The statement added that the upgrade forms part of the strategic vision of NiMet’s management under the leadership of the Director General Prof. Charles Anosike to reposition the agency.
“The current management is focused on modernising the agency’s operational framework to meet international standards, utilizing cutting-edge technology to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and visual clarity of weather forecasts, which are critical to sectors such as aviation, agriculture, and public safety.
“The project is also a testament to Prof. Anosike’s focus on innovation and excellence in delivering vital meteorological services that meet the growing needs of various sectors and stakeholders.”
