Early Warning Systems

Risk knowledge and analysis, monitoring and warning services, dissemination and communication and response capacity all form integral parts of an effective early warning system.

Early  warning  systems  include: (i)  understanding  and mapping  the  hazard (ii)  monitoring  and  forecasting  impending  events (iii)  processing  and disseminating  user-friendly warnings  and (iv)  undertaking appropriate and timely actions in response to the warnings.

Early warnings of hazards are critical for activating emergency plans on the ground in order to save lives and property.  With numerous years experience GSD Weather & Climate Services can provide end-to- end service in developing your early warning system including emergency plans supplemented with training in activating such plans.
