The latest release 1.05 now adds queries forecast fine mesh. Indeed, last few days, App4Nav society generates its own files fine mesh based on the American model predictions WRF.
WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) mesoscale is a new generation digital system for weather forecast. It is designed for both operational forecasting and for the purposes of Atmospheric Research. The model used by Weather4D is WRF-NMM (Nonhydrostatic Mesoscale Model), collaboration between several centers in the U.S. Weather Research. It is updated 4 once daily and gives 96 hour weather forecast by no 1 time. Forecasts include wind speed and direction, atmospheric pressure on the ground, temperature, Total cloud cover, precipitation and CAPE.
Based on the data of this model, App4Nav generates on its own servers predictions up 96 hours with a resolution of 0.1 ° (grilling the 6MN) available twice daily to 7.00 and 13.00 UTC. Regions for :
- W Europe- W Mediterranean
- Grêce
- Madère-Canaries- NW Afrique
- Azores
- Greater and Lesser Antilles
The result, compared to the GFS model for coastal navigation, speaks for itself :
An excellent initiative, and at no additional cost (included in the initial subscription).
