Case Study: Cape Coral enhances public safety with Earth Networks automated lightning alerting

Cape Coral enhances public safety across 17 parks with Earth Networks

The city of Cape Coral, a waterfront community with the second-highest rate of lightning activity in the U.S., faced the challenge of protecting its large population from frequent and dangerous lightning. Their manual alerting process was unsustainable, so they sought an automated solution from Earth Networks to enhance public safety in outdoor areas.

Earth Networks implemented a turnkey solution featuring their Outdoor Alerting Systems across 17 public parks and a web-based weather visualization application. Powered by their Total Lightning Network, the system provides superior detection and automated large-scale alerts. The result is a highly effective risk mitigation tool that gives officials and the public real-time visibility into severe weather, ensuring greater safety for the community.
