Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation

We offer a service that uses our proprietary weather radar data analysis technology to classify precipitation particles within rain clouds. This allows us to detect the formation of hail and provide a last-minute forecast just before it falls.
As demands rise for better countermeasures for various atmospheric disasters such as typhoons, localized torrential rains, and heavy snow, hail is considered particularly difficult to predict relative to the severe damage it can cause. To solve this challenge, our Weather Data Service quickly predicts the areas where hail will fall, making it possible to minimize damage to people, vehicles, and homes.

In recent years, weather-related damage associated with climate change has become more severe and frequent. Through our Weather Data Service, Toshiba Group helps improve the visibility of our sky, and will continue to provide value that contributes to disaster prevention and mitigation in all areas of society, from social infrastructure to private enterprise.
