    Real Digital Media (RDM) and AccuWeather are collaborating to integrate AccuWeather's content feeds with RDM's SpotSwapT technology, a patent-pending feature of RDM’s NEOCAST digital signage solution.

    SpotSwapT allows digital signage network operators to generate a single, master playlist with placeholders for the insertion of local media content. By integrating with this technology, the latest AccuWeather content can be inserted into playlists to ensure viewers are receiving the most relevant content for their locations.

    AccuWeather's digital signage content modules include current local weather conditions, hourly and five-day forecasts, regional radar, video forecasts and weather trivia, plus sports news, U.S. or world news, business news and financial information. Many of AccuWeather's digital signage modules are also available in Spanish.
