Overview
ODS
is a display and analysis program used to view forecasts
produced from Oceanweather's global and regional forecast
models. It is primarily used by offshore operators who require
dedicated marine forecasting support. Dial-up and Internet
communications options are built into the ODS program and
can be setup to automatically download and display the latest
forecasts. All forecast products are sent as highly compressed
data files to keep communication costs low which is important
for many offshore operators.
ODS
is designed to present all applicable marine data in a easy-to-use
interface to assist offshore operators in making weather
dependent decisions. Forecasts from any of Oceanweather's
global or regional forecast models can be used as input
to the ODS program. Operators in locations where tropical
systems are important are encouraged to visit Oceanweather's
CYCLOPS information page which
provides an advanced forecast service for tropical-threat
evacuation and decision making.
