D-ICE is an innovative company which was founded to meet the aviation industry's needs and help take the load off pilots in critical situations by providing highly specialized
de-icing information from scientific measurement of winter precipitation.

The industry is looking for technology to fulfil a wide range of needs and desires such as:

• Longer hold over time (HOT)
• Timely ice detection information to the ground crews and to the pilot in command
• Timely, useful and accurate weather information for both ground and flight crews
• A measurable and sustained reduction in de-icing costs
• Enhanced and safer operations under extreme winter weather conditions
• Reduce environmental impact of aircraft de-icing

D-ICE is here to fulfil these needs by providing accurate information to pilots:

• No human interpretation - no relying on visibility charts for evaluation of precipitation intensity.
• Updated HOT every 10 minutes – based on knowledge and technology.
