At Atlantify we have developed a product that notifies you about weather conditions that can harm your harvest.
To get the best result, we combined the needs of agribusiness, integrated with various weather sources, and used our expertise in cloud, software, and hardware.

Hail is damaging property at a rapidly increasing rate. Historically, hail storms have caused an average of $1 billion dollars a year in damage to crops in U.S. We can provide you with a solution that will warn you of the bad weather.

What we offer

Owners of Anti-Hail Cannons, registered in our platform, can monitor the movement of dangerous clouds, that can cause hail, in real-time. They can use this information to make informed decisions when to activate their cannons to protect their crop, but also optimize the cost of fuel for the cannons. The platform informs the owner if a cloud is dangerously close to its property. The system also provides the option to trigger or stop the cannons automatically based on predefined conditions such as day of the week and time of day.

What we offer

How it works

Meteorological data

Our platform retrieves public data from the local Executive Agency - Hail Suppression. The data provides location and classification of detected vie Doppler radars clouds at a height of 2.5km. Clouds with reflectivity above 45 dBZ are considered dangerous. Based on criteria predefined by experts, our system analyzes the public data and sends notifications to registered owners of ultrasonic cannon for hail suppression.

Triggering and Warnings

Each registered anti-hail cannon, have predefined warning and activation range. If a cloud, classified as dangerous, is detected crossing the warning range, the system will send a warning SMS to the owner. If the cloud crosses the activation range of the cannon, the system will automatically activate it or will send an SMS to the owner to manually activated it, depending on predefined preferences.

What is Hail Cannon

The Hail Cannon is a shock wave generator used to disrupt the formation of hailstones in their growing phase. An explosive charge of acetylene gas & air is fired in the lower chamber of the machine. As the resulting energy passes through the neck & into the cone it develops into a force that becomes a shockwave. This shockwave, clearly audible as a large whistling sound, then travels at the speed of sound into & through the cloud formations above, disrupting the growth phase of the hailstones.
