Spotter Network Layer in weatherTAP’s RadarLab Plus

The Spotter Network is dedicated to bringing storm spotters, storm chasers, coordinators and public servants together in a seamless network of information. They strive to provide accurate position data of spotters and chasers for coordination/reporting, which in turn provides ground truth to services like weatherTAP who are engaged in the protection of life and property. The network is a combination of locally installed software for position and status reporting, and web based processing and mapping.

The Spotter Network is officially an Illinois registered Non-Profit corporation, but run as an organization of like-minded individuals taking input from the various communities that it serves, and making the output available to any and all who are interested in severe weather.
