Description: Understory is a weather infrastructure and analytics company that detects rain, hail, wind, and other weather events directly at the earth’s surface, where the risk to life and property is greatest. Understory builds and operates weather networks that are comprised of patented RTi weather stations, which are full-stack, rugged, tamper-proof, maintenance-free, precision weather solutions. The stations measure at 50,000 times a second and power a cloud-based artificial intelligence core that stitches the measurements together to provide an unprecedented understanding of weather events. These weather networks have completely wireless data transmission and provide research-grade hail, wind, rainfall, temperature, humidity, evapotranspiration, and growing degree unit accuracy at a fraction of the cost of any other solution on the market.
