On a shrimp farm, weather is not context — it is a daily operational variable. Preparing for heavy rain, heat spells and pond-work windows is decided ahead of time, and a generic provincial forecast is not enough. We adapt it to your location and your operation.
Who it is for
Production managers, pond supervisors and shrimp-farm administrators: whoever decides event preparation, field work and water management.
Decisions we can help with
| Operational decision | Horizon | Maturity |
|---|---|---|
| Weather-aware pond monitoring priorities | Weather | Available for tailored pilots |
| Heavy-rain preparation | Weather | Available for tailored pilots |
| Heat preparation | Weather | Available for tailored pilots |
| Outdoor work windows | Weather | Available for tailored pilots |
| Water-management planning | Weather | Available for tailored pilots |
| Seasonal readiness | Seasonal | Case-by-case evaluation |
Possible inputs and deliverables
A pilot can start with public or licensed atmospheric and coastal information. Pond observations, operational logs and site-specific thresholds can materially improve relevance.
Example deliverables include a decision-focused outlook, agreed thresholds, short operational notes, and a review of performance against the customer's own decision criteria.
What a delivery could look like
Preparation panel · generic coastal shrimp farm.
| Day | Expected conditions | Attention | Operational read | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
TUE | Rain ~15 mm · max 31°C | Medium | Morning work window |
 |
WED | Heavy rain, ~60 mm · max 33°C | High | Prioritise checks on rain-sensitive ponds |
 |
THU | Gradual clearing · max 34°C | Medium | Sustained heat: move heavy work to dawn |

You can start without buying a weather station
A pilot can start with available observations and numerical models calibrated for the coast. And if you already have farm rainfall records, operational history or any observation of your own, we bring them in to sharpen the personalisation.
Explicit capability limits
- We do not diagnose biological conditions in shrimp (disease, physiological stress, health status).
- We do not predict water quality without suitable farm data; meteorology is an input, not a substitute for in-pond measurement.
- We do not make treatment recommendations (chemical, biological or health-management).
- We do not issue official alerts: those are the exclusive responsibility of the Ecuadorian State (SGR/INAMHI).
- We do not install sensors or equipment: we work 100 % with software and data.
