Remote Wind Monitoring System for the Macy*s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Pinnacle was selected to provide Macy*s with a state-of-the-art Environmental Monitoring System. New York’s man-made canyons present a unique, challenging environment to the flight of the Macy*s Thanksgiving Day Parade balloons.
To more accurately understand and track the wind conditions along the 2-mile-long parade route, Macy*s asked Pinnacle to design a wind monitoring system that could be accessed wirelessly along the entire parade route.
Pinnacle submitted a design that would allow multiple City agencies and Macy*s to access wind data simultaneously from wired and wireless PCs. Macy*s selected Pinnacle because its design was so comprensive, because of its proven ability to perform, and because of its commitment to clients.
