Xweather Observe
Better operational decisions from quality-controlled sensor data
- 30+ supported parameters
- Automated quality control
- API and dashboard access
Secure access to 30+ weather, environmental, and solar parameters from Vaisala sensors, quality-controlled and delivered via API and dashboard.
)
Real-time monitoring with quality-controlled data
Observations displayed in map, graph, and list views. Every measurement passes automated quality control before it reaches your systems. A 3-day weather forecast is included in the map view.
- Map, graph, and list views
- Automated QC checks
- 3-day forecast included

Streaming and REST APIs for every workflow
A streaming WebSocket API delivers new measurements as they arrive. A REST API serves historical data for integration into business intelligence, SCADA, and operational systems. Both APIs use standard formats and are included in the subscription.
- WebSocket streaming
- REST API
- Developer-friendly integration

Data you can trust
Automated quality control checks every observation before it enters operational workflows.
Access from anywhere
Real-time and historical data accessible through a web dashboard and API from any location.
One platform for devices and data
View observations, control user access, manage settings, and monitor sensor health in a single environment.
Alerts with action guidelines
Configurable alerts for any parameter with user-defined response instructions attached, so recipients know exactly what to do when conditions change.
Security and quality built in
Certified to industry standards for information security, quality management, and data handling.
Standard for quality management systems
Compliant in secure data management
Standard for security governance
From sensor to operational decision in four steps
Connect Vaisala sensors and weather stations to the Xweather Observe service. Secure cloud connection with minimal setup.
Observations are ingested and quality-controlled automatically. Range, cross-parameter, step, and persistence checks run on every measurement.
Access data through the web dashboard or integrate via streaming and REST APIs. Map, graph, and list views are available from any device.
Configure threshold alerts, user access, and notification routing. Attach action guidelines so recipients know exactly how to respond.
Visibility where it matters
Xweather Observe supports operations that depend on local weather, air quality, or solar conditions.
Site-specific operational monitoring
Vaisala weather stations deliver site-specific temperature, wind, precipitation, and pressure data for facility management, safety protocols, and event-based decisions. Automated QC checks incoming data before it reaches dispatch, planning, or control systems.

Irradiance and performance monitoring
Operators of photovoltaic installations monitor irradiance, panel temperature, soiling, and tracker alignment. Real-time and historical data supports performance ratio calculations, soiling loss quantification, and reconciliation between expected and actual generation.

Air quality and emissions monitoring
Gas and particulate matter sensors measure pollutant concentrations in real time. Xweather Observe calculates European and U.S. Air Quality indices automatically. Threshold alerts trigger when concentrations approach regulatory or operational limits, supporting compliance reporting and community notification.

Build on Xweather Observe
Xweather Observe is the data access layer. Two products extend its capabilities for organizations that need more from their sensor investment.
Data access and monitoring
Secure access to 30+ weather, environmental, and solar parameters from Vaisala sensors. Quality-controlled observations, threshold alerts, and API integration.
Add severe weather alerting
Set up lightning, hail, wind, and gust alerts for your sites with no additional hardware. All-clear notifications reduce unnecessary downtime.
Add hyperlocal forecasting
Pair your sensor observations with a dedicated machine learning model to generate a hyperlocal, calibrated forecast with confidence limits for each site.
