IBC TV will feature three ‘live’ daily weather shows from its studio, providing attendees the latest updates on Amsterdam’s weather for the duration of the IBC exhibition.
The weather content and forecasts will be curated in Weatherscape XT, the multimedia weather graphics platform from specialist weather insights company MetraWeather, who are exhibiting at IBC 2015 in Booth 14.C06.
Weatherscape XT is the current weather graphics platform for TV and news brands, including the BBC, TG4, CNN Philippines, TVB Hong Kong and Channels Seven, Nine and Ten in Australia.
The IBC TV weather shows are presented by Chester Lampkin, an American broadcast and media meteorologist.
Chester is currently a broadcast meteorologist with MetraWeather’s parent company MetService, a National Weather Service certified to provide public safety and aviation weather guidance. He is travelling to Amsterdam especially to present the weather shows and expand upon the production process from the perspective of the newsroom.
IBC TV is a round the clock, live linear web channel, accessible via any IP connected smartphone, tablet, Mac or PC. In addition, IBC TV is shown—with sub-titles—on digital screens around the RAI during IBC 2015, including on a massive outdoor digital display and large indoor screens in some of the highest traffic areas.
