DTN OnGuard Siren Tracks Severe Weather
BY AsphaltPro Staff
DTN of Burnsville, Minnesota, is a weather company releasing its own portable, smart, outdoor system to track severe weather and automatically alert construction workers. The OnGuard Siren Alerting system is designed to provide siren notification of hazards approaching a certain location.
This is because those in construction cannot always be on their phones, iPads, tablets or PC to monitor weather. According to DTN, the OnGuard Siren Alerting Solution: provides siren hardware, three multi-directional sirens, and a dual-color beacon mounted on a pole, tripod or structure;
siren triggers include lightning—advisory, caution, and warning ranges, as well as an all-clear notice, plus community and county-based National Weather Service severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings; sirens and beacons tie into DTN’s WeatherSentry alert system that provides weather information through a universal smart controller; and has the ability to consult with on-call meteorologist.
