Better results, reduced costs
The challenges for operations in ice areas can really increase the costs involved. Not being able to work, or not being able to work long enough, has a lot of ramifications. With Ice charting we can help contribute to better planning, reduced downtime and cost saving.
Ice charting specialists
Infoplaza’s ice charting experts are meteorologists by trade, who have enjoyed intensive training programs on ice formations and its properties. In addition, they have years of hands-on ice charting experience on-site. They have an in depth understanding of how ice forms, moves, evolves, and reacts over the course of the ice season. Ice forecasting requires both meteorological and climatological knowledge in order to understand how, historic sea conditions and seasonal ice patterns may be influenced by expected weather conditions at a location.
Meteorological expertise
Ice formation and propagation is heavily dependent on current weather conditions. Accurate and reliable meteorological solutions are essential in delivering high quality Ice Charting services.
