The Metra Weathercape automates weather graphics production.

Metra’s weather presentation software, Weatherscape XT, now includes Render Manager, which provides a simple and easy-to-use interface for the automated production of images and 3-D animations populated with the very latest weather data.

Weatherscape XT is a full turnkey solution for weather graphics presentation and provides a single solution for weather presentation graphics and meteorological data. Pre-rendering is not required for any broadcast graphic with Weatherscape XT, so as soon as the data arrives it can be taken to air, giving the very latest information to viewers.
