Case Study: The SIMIN Project
Baron worked with partners Lockheed Martin and Harris Corporation to modernize a national integrated meteorological system for Romania, named SIMIN (Sistemul Meteorologic Integrat National).
SIMIN integrates a diverse array of meteorological hardware and capabilities. Baron performed full systems integration on these assets, a process requiring data from legacy systems to be converted to a format compatible with the newer installations. In total, Baron performed integration services for:
- C-band and S-band radar sensors
- An eight-sensor lightning detection network
- 60 automated surface stations
- Four aviation weather observation stations
- METEOSAT data feed
- 11 observational buoys
- Forecast models
- Data distribution and display
- Alert messaging
- Advanced radar analysis and nowcasting systms
- Data processing for uniquely tailored data products
Our complete solution for Meteorological Surveillance incorporates these components:
