## About HELIOS
Fast and accurate real-time ground intelligence Microclimates are on the rise, and as a result, there are extreme deviations of wind, snow, fog and visibility even over short distances. Hyperlocal ground information enhances operational efficiencies and decision making that can save time, money, property and even lives. Helios environmental intelligence platform from NV5 Geospatial provides essential information about hyperlocal weather that traditional weather sources typically struggle to discern. Helios uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to detect the occurrence and impacts of weather on critical ground infrastructure through its large terrestrial camera network. This timely data is important for weather-dependent decision making.
