The first step of developing a city climate system is the installation of a meteorological sensor network (air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, etc.) within the city. meteoblue has developed several tools to assess the best sensor locations within a city and in the surrounding areas. Once the sensors are installed, meteorological data can be received real-time via API, web, FTP or mobile app. Meteorological data are quality controlled and corrected for e.g. radiation measurement errors. The sensor network is key to provide reliable information for managing a city’s climate change mitigation measures.

Patients suffering from urinary retention are unable to urinate properly, which strongly affects their quality of life. To date, catheters are the most commonly used therapy for bladder emptying. However, they are very often the main cause of urinary infections. Our patent-pending technology is the world’s first non-invasive solution for urinary retention. Our product is a handheld device, which aids bladder emptying by generating a urine flow while urine contact is avoided.
