Ground Based Cloud Seeding Generator
Smart Cloud Seeding Balloons
Cloud Seeding Smart Balloons are a new technology poised to enter the market at the private level. Our complete atmospheric water management product is ideal for small seeding operations at lower altitudes like in a valley or local watershed. They help to create water security and independence and put control of cloud seeding operations in the hands of the water user. The balloons are fast, inexpensive, and easy for one person to operate.
Cloud Seeding Technologies supplies two configurations of smart balloons including an optional remote launch system controlled through a data connection, or a manual launch system. Both systems require minimal training, installation, and investment.
