SKYWATCH GEOS 11:
Why has NTech's GEOS 11 has become the world's premiere handheld weather instrument?

  • Altimeter accuracy :: as accurate as instruments five times the cost (real world independant results show +/- 3 feet point-to-point)
  • Real-time and historical data from optional sofware/PC interface
  • Unsurpassed data storage :: 24,400 data sets (a data set includes ALL measurements)
  • Customized data storage intervals, including storing data when the unit is OFF, ON, or both
  • Solid Swiss construction :: full metal case, mineral glass screen, virtually indestructible
  • Built-in LED lamp :: Powered by separate batteries
  • Industry-best hygrometer for accurate humidity readings
  • Replaceable impeller, protected sensors

With features never before found on a handheld weather instrument, the GEOS 11 is designed for the demanding needs of many markets:

  • Agriculture; control of wind speed and direction before using sprayed chemicals. Agri-foodstuff; control of storage environment (temperature, humidity).
  • Automobile; high-performance engine mechanics (density altitude).
  • Cave Exploration: Measure depths of caves. Our GEOS 11 will be used in an attempt of a US team to defeat the world record for the deepest cave exploration.
  • Aviation; reading of the Flight Level, height, finesse, pressure, altitude, altitude variation, etc..
  • Rappelling; check the height when rappelling down.
  • HVAC; air flows and temperature measurements.
  • Sporting events; control of weather conditions during meetings, contest validation.
  • Trekking; recording of extreme conditions (mountains, deserts, polar spots), warning of sudden weather changes, wind chill indication.
  • Civil engineering; close estimation on surveying heights on property.
  • Geology; altitude and stratum measurement.
  • Military; heat stroke prevention, long range shooters, skydiving, artillery, weather conditions checking in case of chemical attacks. CLICK HERE for a pdf on military heat stress.
  • Firefighters; managing the risk of forest fire propagation (wind speed and direction).
  • Rescue teams; evaluation of weather conditions for rescue and survival operations (coast guards, air rescue, etc.).
  • Science; meteorology, environment, aerodynamic, etc..
  • Sports and leisure; mountain bikes, climbing, alpinism, hiking, bow shooting, fishing, golf, scale models, kites, etc..
  • Free flight; hang gliding, paragliding, skydiving, balloon, base jump, wing flight.

SKYWATCH Log PC Interface:
Our Skywatch Log PC interface and software is now available. Connect the GEOS 11 to a PC (either a USB or RS232 port) and get the most out of your GEOS 11! Not only can all data be downloaded from the GEOS 11, either historical or real-time, but advanced features and calibration is possible using the SKYWATCH Log software. All preferences for the GEOS 11 can be set using the software and connection. Automatic turn-off period, length of backlight being lit, altitude, pressure, clock variation, time and date plus more.

The GEOS 11 measures and stores all data automatically, in intervals from 0.5 second to 24 hours. All information is stored even when the LCD is not on.
