By Stella Enenche, Abuja
The Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NiMet) said it has upgraded its weather presentation infrastructure to 4K resolution.
The transformative initiative is being implemented in partnership with global technology leader Chyron and will be launched in November 2024.
The project will significantly enhance NiMet’s weather presentation capabilities and mark a critical milestone in the agency’s commitment to delivering world-class meteorological services.
NiMet said it will integrate Chyron’s state-of-the-art weather presentation solutions, bringing enhanced processing power, dynamic real-time graphics, and high-definition displays to its broadcasts.
The move to 4K resolution will ensure sharper, more detailed visuals, giving Nigerians access to superior weather data that is clear, accurate, and reliable.
The upgrade forms part of the strategic vision of NiMet’s management to reposition the agency.
The current management is focused on modernising the agency’s operational framework to meet international standards, utilising cutting-edge technology to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and visual clarity of weather forecasts, which are critical to sectors such as aviation, agriculture, and public safety.
The project is also a testament to Prof. Anosike’s focus on innovation and excellence in delivering vital meteorological services that meet the growing needs of various sectors and stakeholders.
