Weather intelligence for construction & industry

Precision conditions
for safer sites and
better outcomes

Weather is the single largest uncontrolled variable on a construction site or infrastructure network. LoEco puts the right measurements exactly where decisions are made.

Know the condition of vital infrastructure before failures happen

Above-ground electrical and rail infrastructure faces continuous environmental stress — thermal expansion and contraction of overhead lines, ice and rime loading on insulators, wind-induced conductor sway, and waterlogging of cable ducts and junction boxes. Most faults are preceded by detectable environmental conditions that go unmonitored until the damage is done.

MeteoA deploys local weather measurement networks — including Trofic temperature sensors, ultrasonic anemometers, and rain gauges — at key points along cable runs, transformer enclosures, and rail trackside installations. These provide the environmental context that correlates with fault history and feeds predictive maintenance models.

Alongside weather instrumentation, MeteoA is developing Thermal Infrared (TIR) imaging solutions that relay real-time thermal images of critical equipment — switchgear, joints, transformer bushings, rail fishplates — directly to maintenance staff. Hotspots that indicate resistance heating or imminent failure become visible remotely, enabling targeted intervention before an outage.

Challenge 02  Â·  Construction Process Quality

Environmental precision for concrete, asphalt, and structural finishes

The quality of a concrete pour or asphalt layer is determined in the hours immediately after placement. Temperature, humidity, solar radiation, and wind all govern the rate and uniformity of hydration and curing — and small deviations from optimal conditions cause shrinkage cracking, surface defects, delamination, and long-term strength loss that only reveal themselves months later.

The same principle applies to screeds, renders, adhesives, sealants, and road surfaces. Every product has an application window defined by ambient temperature and humidity limits, and a curing curve that is highly sensitive to site-level conditions — not averages from a distant weather station.

MeteoA installs ground and air temperature sensors, humidity loggers, solar radiation instruments, and anemometers directly at the pour or laying location. LoEco processes these inputs through empirical curing models — including maturity method calculations for concrete — and delivers a live dashboard showing current conditions against specification limits, predicted curing progress, and earliest safe stripping or trafficking times.

Challenge 03  Â·  Worker Heat & Cold Stress

Protect workers from heat stress and cold exposure in real time

Outdoor workers on construction sites and industrial facilities are directly exposed to the full range of thermal stress — from radiant heat loading in summer to wind chill and wet cold in winter. Both extremes impair concentration, physical capacity, and decision-making, increasing accident risk and causing serious health consequences that are often underreported.

Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) is the internationally recognised index for occupational heat stress. It combines air temperature, humidity, solar radiation, and wind to produce a single value that reflects the true physiological burden on a worker — not just the shade temperature. MeteoA's Trofic instrument measures all three WBGT inputs (dry-bulb, black-globe, and humidity) continuously at site level without requiring external power or internet connectivity.

For cold stress, LoEco calculates wind chill equivalent temperature and tracks wet-cold exposure duration — the combination of low temperature, wind, and rain that drives hypothermia risk in Northern European conditions. Configurable thresholds trigger alerts to site supervisors before conditions reach danger levels, enabling timely rotation, shelter breaks, and PPE upgrades.

From site sensor to actionable decision

A four-step pipeline built around the demands of construction and industrial operations.

01

Site instrument deployment

We install temperature, humidity, solar, wind, and rain sensors at the exact locations that matter — at pour height, trackside, alongside switchgear, or at working-level on the structure.

02

Continuous real-time data

All sensors transmit every 10 minutes via LoRaWAN or 4G to the LoEco pipeline — validated, time-stamped, and archived. TIR image feeds relay continuously to authorised maintenance staff.

03

Models and derived outputs

WBGT, wind chill, curing maturity, and thermal anomaly detection are computed automatically from measured variables using ISO and engineering standards.

04

Dashboard, alerts & records

Live and historical data is available in your LoEco dashboard. Threshold alerts reach site supervisors and maintenance staff via email or SMS — and environmental logs provide compliance documentation.
