Project Need
NOAA Radar Pro takes users’ weather watching to the next level, allowing them to track the latest weather activity in high-definition. It’s the only app where all National Weather Service watches, warnings, and other alerts are shown on the map as interactive polygons covering the territories they're active for. Users can see what weather is coming their way to keep themselves, their families, and their communities safe.
User Experience
With NOAA Radar Pro, users can interact with the app in a number of ways to get the most accurate weather:
¥ Users can receive push notifications whenever a weather alert is issued (tornadoes, flood warnings, snow storms, and more) without opening the app; users can define the types of alerts they would like to receive.
¥ Radar and satellite overlays show real-time rain, snow, mixed precipitation, and cloud cover in high resolution and vivid colors globally.
¥ Rain map provides 24-hour rain forecast and terrain range for locations around the world.
¥ Hurricane Tracker displays current and previous positions of tropical storms and hurricanes along with their forecasted path in the Pacific and Atlantic basins.
Project Marketing
NOAA Radar Pro is promoted as a must have weather app for people of all ages and occupations as there are few things that affect people’s daily lives more than the weather. We cooperate with bloggers and reporters who cover weather apps and arrange promo code giveaways as well as provide a discount for educational institutions.
Project Privacy
The security and confidentiality of user information is very important to us, so we take appropriate security measures (including physical, electronic and procedural measures) to help safeguard user information from unauthorized access and disclosure.
Community
Apps more than ever are helping our communities to connect and engage, from emergency services to Not for Profits to social groups, these apps not only assist in delivery but provide efficiencies importantly providing those at the coalface more time to do their important work whether it be fighting fires or managing the local team. It's not all serious though we're also looking for apps that work to help bring the community groups together with fun and enjoyable activities.
