The Missing Layer in Human Performance: Why Wearables Need Environmental Intelligence

Wearables track what's happening inside the operator. They don't measure what's happening around them. And without understanding the environmental stimulus, physiological response data loses critical context. An elevated heart rate at a Wet Bulb Globe Temperature of 72°F means something entirely different than the same elevated heart rate at WBGT 86°F. Same physiological response. Completely different risk profile. This is the Human Performance Gap: programs that monitor the body's response without understanding what's driving it. It's a specific manifestation of the broader Outdoor Health & Safety Gap, applied to the domain where getting it wrong carries the highest stakes.

Shrinking the Risk Readiness Gap: Introducing 8-Day Environmental Risk Forecasting

GOES’ 8-day environmental risk forecast extends medical-grade health intelligence into the strategic planning horizon. From public land agencies to industrial crews, organizations now gain the time and foresight needed to manage environmental exposure before it becomes a safety issue. This innovation closes the gap between weather data and human risk—transforming outdoor operations from reactive to ready.

Digitizing Heat Risk to Close the Outdoor Health & Safety Gap

Most people think they understand heat. They don’t. GOES Health digitized the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature — the true measure of heat stress — to make lifesaving environmental intelligence available to everyone, everywhere. We’re closing the Outdoor Health & Safety Gap, one risk at a time.
