Enhanced Application Usability
–
A
2010 “facelift” provides greater use of command
and toolbars
as well as ease in selection of maps and satellite
images. This
makes the system considerably easier to use and
allows you to get the job done quicker.
Multiple EMail Attachments
–
For anyone who emails information from the
Hurrtrak system.. and who doesn't... this is a welcome time saving
addition which allows the user to send multiple
application outputs in a single email. Simply
select the graphics or reports you wish to email
and hit “Send.”
There is no limit to the number of attachments you
can include.
New Interactive wind
speed forecast –
Just “point & click” on a tracking map and display
forecast wind speeds for desired location. A great
way to see how wind forecasts vary from location
to location, particularly when using Advanced Wind
Estimation.
Forecast Model
Improvements
- You asked and we delivered! We now
have a much easier, highly interactive method to
pick and choose those forecast models you want
displayed within the Hurrtrak system.
New 2010 Risk/Impact
Analysis Tab
- New "tab" displays the Risk/Impact information,
along with a wind speed/ direction graph for base
locations. PLUS…you now have the ability to define
more than one "base" location to quickly assess
the forecasted impacts to ALL of your high
priority sites/locations.
New 2010 Location Risk/Impact Report –
New forecast report combines risk analysis and
wind forecast data in one graphically attractive
report. Report includes risk analysis color bars
as well as a chart of the location's expected wind
speeds and wind directions during the passage of a
storm.
Executive Summary Report
- This is now
part of our standard report set. It is directly
selectable from the reports menu making it a
simple “one click” option.
Application "Skins"
– Personalize your system's look and feel by using
different application color and font schemes or
"skins" with the Hurrtrak Application. Folks who
want larger fonts will love this! Choose from
several included “skins” or import your own.
Enhanced Mapping –
Our software now displays counties, major roadways
and state border outlines as "layers" on any
tracking map. State borders are particularly
useful on tracking maps that also display counties
and all thematic type maps.
Enhanced map color
capabilities
– We’ve made it much easier
to change your map colors (water/land) by
introducing some pre-set color schemes for your
selection...or, simply create your own.
Email Alert Narrative Impact
Statement
– EMail Alerts can now include the Narrative
Impact Statement within the body of the Alert
Email. This provides recipient(s) with not only
the fact that the Alert Condition has been met but
with the expected impact to the Alert Location…in
a narrative format.
Additional EMail Alert Trigger
– Users who must take actions based on wind speeds
AND time frames will love this! Our new EMail
alert condition allows you to define an Alert
which in turn notifies recipients that a certain
wind speed is forecast to impact the Alert
Location WITHIN a specific number of hours. (For
example: “Alert me when 50 MPH winds are forecast
for a location within 48 hours.”)
