UNSPSC 41114418: Meteorological satellite data receiving and analyzing system

A system that processes and analyzes the meteorological data by receiving the data sent by the satellite (climate satellite) that loads the meteorological instruments. It is structured with antenna, receiver, processor and analyzer (computer).

UNSPSC 41114418 Meteorological satellite data receiving and analyzing system (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. State and local opportunities tagged under this code instead focus on ground-based lightning detection, protection, and weather monitoring systems — a mismatch between the code's stated purpose and what jurisdictions are actually procuring.

The four recent opportunities span lightning protection installation, lightning detection hardware and software, temperature and humidity sensors, and lightning prediction systems. The Texas Military Department issued an IFB for lightning protection system installation at Camp Swift in Bastrop, Texas, with bids due September 26, 2026 and a mandatory pre-bid site visit on September 16, 2026. Hillsborough County entered a sole-source procurement with Earth Networks, Inc. for lightning detection and severe weather monitoring hardware, software, and maintenance at an estimated contract value of $47,627.54 over two years. The Texas Water Development Board requested bids on temperature sensors, cables, and mounting equipment under IFB ESBD_548214 with an August 25, 2026 deadline. Broward County and the City of Fort Lauderdale issued an RFI on May 6, 2026 to evaluate sole-source justification for a Thor Guard, Inc. TG-360 Lightning Prediction and Detection System upgrade. Issuing bodies include state departments, county governments, and municipalities. Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas and Florida, with no pattern of repeat buyers under this specific code visible in the source material.
