This is an application used by a large number of users, especially those with professions such as professional pilots, paragliders, skydivers, divers, surfers, boaters, fishermen, storm hunters, and time professionals, as well as governments, military personnel, and rescue teams, trust. Because it is an extremely suitable tool for visualizing reporting time, it is constantly updated in real-time with great detail and accuracy.

INTERACTIVE WEATHER MAPS

What makes the difference from other applications is that users can interact with this application not only in the form of an app but also find the application in the form of a website, which makes the experience for users with this application easier and more convenient than ever. Not only does it stand out for its cross-platform support, but Windy is really popular with users because when using it, users can experience weather maps and interact with many different data layers such as clouds, rain, etc. snow, wind, temperature, and pressure compared to real-time. When developing this application, the developers are also very user-friendly by providing additional customization features to help optimize each user’s individuality, making it easy for each person to use.

Intuitive Weather Visualization: Unlike other weather applications, although Windy is an app with many functions, it is designed with a quite friendly interface so that anyone can use it. Providing additional customization modes for each individual makes the interactive experience extremely easy, allowing us to clearly understand and analyze weather information and make appropriate decisions, such as preparing for weather conditions. Unforeseen weather events or planning for outdoor activities, especially activities at sea.
Customizable Forecast Layers: In addition, the application’s UI is designed extremely specifically and uniquely in a layered style, with information such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, air pressure, and other information being designed. Other weather factors are displayed visually on different locations on the map, thereby enabling users to clearly grasp the necessary information and adjust their plans accordingly.
Multi-Altitude Weather Data: The application visualizes not only small details but also extensive weather at different altitudes from the surface up to 13.5km.

FORECAST MODELS

Windy is not just an application that provides detailed weather information and forecasts but also provides a series of forecast models, helping users better understand changes in climate and weather. For a weather forecast application, the model is the core backbone because it performs the role of calculation and simulation based on existing weather data in the past and present to predict future weather. Windy.com uses a variety of forecast models from different sources, including complex mathematical models such as ECMWF (European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts), GFS (Global Forecast System), ICON(Integrated) Forecast System for Weather Forecast and Climate Model) and many other models.

Global and Local Models: In addition to bringing users access to leading global models such as GFS (Global Forecast System), ECMWF (European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts), ICON (Integrated Forecast System for Weather Forecast and Climate Model ), this application also has many other local models such as NAM (North American Mesoscale) – Local weather forecast model for North America, HRRR (High-Resolution Rapid Refresh) – Local weather forecast model method with high resolution and fast update speed,…
Model Comparison Tool: Not only does it provide a variety of models, but Windy also performs the function of comparing models with each other, then selects the fastest calculation model with the highest accuracy and converts models to each other. This greatly reduces our time as we do not need to hesitate every time we choose which model.
Extended Forecast Horizons: Not only does it ensure high accuracy in future weather forecasts 1 day later, but the application can also help users grasp weather information within the next 16 days; this is an advantage. Great for people planning long trips or people with busy schedules who can flexibly arrange their work.

WIND FORECASTING

Windy is known as an application that predicts and provides information with high accuracy, especially in the field of wind forecasting, by using the most modern technologies and accurate data to calculate and then providing reliable information so that the application can forecast wind in a certain area with up to 99% accuracy. From short-term to long-term forecasts, as I mentioned, long-term forecasts can last up to 16 days, through which users can easily access all information about wind speed, wind direction, and wind fluctuations over time. Time, helping them prepare and manage risks effectively and promptly when carrying out outdoor activities and plans related to weather and wind.

Sports Wind Forecasting: Not only does it act as a wind prediction, but the application is also quite useful for users who are passionate about outdoor activities related to wind, because through information about wind forecasts, Windy can suggest suitable sports for that day, such as kite flying, sailing, surfing, skydiving,…
Wind Speed Visualization: Not only is this application highly appreciated for its forecast accuracy, this application is also praised for the way it visualizes information about wind speed, wind gusts and wind direction in a very easy to understand way.
Custom Spot Forecasting: Besides other outstanding functional tools, this is also an equally important function, allowing users to create custom weather forecasts for specific spots and airports, with Focusing mainly on wind forecasts so that users can conveniently monitor and forecast weather conditions for activities such as aviation, tourism, outdoor sports, etc.

WEBCAMS

Some other functions of this application are being able to use webcams to predict the weather. This is a function that I think is quite convenient because you don’t need to look up information to see where you are. Know the weather forecast at that time. Just open the webcam, and the application will forecast for you in less than 1 second. Besides, the application also owns image information from 55,000 webcams globally, which helps you see real images of the weather in the areas you want to see.

Integrated Webcam Network: As I said above, the application is integrated with up to 55,000 cameras globally, this is a quite large number, so the images collected will be an extremely large repository of documents from which to help inform users. Weather forecasts are becoming more and more accurate.

Real-Time Visuals: Not only providing images, but the application also shares with users actual fluctuations in rain, clouds, and wind through images obtained from satellites and displayed accurately and intuitively on the application.
Local Weather Identific weather: Because it can forecast weather for up to 16 days, the application is also used to predict storms and tornadoes through which users or social organizations can take evacuation and rescue measures.
