Heat Stress Compliance.
Built for Every Field Site.

Real-time heat stress monitoring on Windy.com. Instant zone alerts, ISO 7933 audit reports, and FIDIC Clause 8.4 Extension of Time evidence — wherever your team operates.

Alert zones: ● Green ● Amber ● Red ● Purple ● Black

Heat stress is a legal exposure.
Most sites are documenting it wrong.

When a worker collapses or a contractor files for an Extension of Time, the question is never "was it hot?" — it's "where is your audit trail?"

Without FieldGuard

Evidence you don't have

Manual temperature logs, paper forms, guesswork. When an incident occurs or a delay claim arrives, you're building evidence retrospectively — with data that doesn't exist.

The cost of gaps

Delays without documentation

Project teams lose Extension of Time claims because they cannot demonstrate the site conditions that caused the delay — even when those conditions were severe and prolonged.

With FieldGuard

Every hour on record

FieldGuard logs WBGT, heat stress zones, and work restrictions continuously at your GPS coordinates — using the standardised heat stress calculation method your HSE authority requires.

Claim-ready output

ISO 7933 reports in one click

Weekly audit reports and FIDIC 8.4 EOT evidence packages generated automatically — formatted for HSE authorities and contract administrators.

Five-zone heat stress classification

A standardised five-zone system used across major energy, infrastructure, and industrial projects worldwide. Real-time zone assignment at your exact site location.

ZoneWBGT RangeWork StatusRequired Action
GREEN< 28°CNormal operationsStandard hydration, routine monitoring
AMBER28–32°CCautionIncrease rest breaks, hydration checks
RED32–35°CHigh riskMandatory rest periods, supervisor alert
PURPLE35–38°CExtreme — restrictedAcclimatised workers only, medical standby
BLACK> 38°CWork stoppageAll outdoor work ceases — incident threshold

Built for HSE managers,
not app developers.

Every feature maps directly to a compliance obligation or audit requirement you already face on site.

Common questions

How does key delivery work?+
After payment, FieldGuard generates your license key (format: FG-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) and emails it to you within a minute. There is no manual step — you can activate immediately. Lost your key? Recover it any time at fieldguard-hse.com/recover.
What does "site license" mean exactly?+
A site license covers unlimited users on a single project site or facility. If your organisation operates multiple geographically separate sites, each requires its own license. The key can be shared among all HSE managers and engineers on that project.
Do I need a Windy.com account?+
No account is required. FieldGuard is accessed directly through the Windy.com plugin interface. Your FieldGuard license key is all you need to unlock full functionality.
What industries and regions does FieldGuard support?+
FieldGuard is designed for any field operation where outdoor workers are exposed to heat stress — energy, oil & gas, infrastructure, utilities, mining, agriculture, and civil projects worldwide. ISO 7933 and FIDIC are internationally recognised standards.
What happens when my license expires?+
After 12 months, report generation is suspended and the plugin shows an expiry notice. Renew at any time to restore full access — historical data is not affected.
Can I get a purchase order / invoice for procurement?+
Gumroad issues a full VAT invoice automatically on payment. If your procurement process requires a pro-forma invoice or PO-based purchase, use the contact form and select "Procurement / PO request".
