Al Jazeera is one of the world’s largest news organizations. 
Its daily news and weather bulletins reach 305 million households all across the globe.

Al Jazeera needed a system that could display accurate weather forecasts in a concise and informative manner for viewers. Metacast from ChyronHego, turned out to be the ideal solution. 

”We looked at all the major weather graphics providers and Metacast was the solution that stood out. It could display the weather in a clear, concise manner, yet it had the versatility for us to adapt the graphics the way we wanted,” said Steff Gaulter, Senior Weather Presenter at Al Jazeera English. 

 

 

For over seven years now, Al Jazeera’s meteorologists have used Metacast to create real-time, advanced, high-quality graphics for weather bulletins and breaking news stories.

”Without this solution, I would imagine our weather broadcasts to be missing an important edge,” said Gaulter.
