      Hello Windy Team!

      I have a question about commercial use. Is an internal use of windy in a company allowed (a 100-200 querys of data/day-just location points )? No presentation to the outside world or rerouting of data oruseage of the api v4. Maybe I missed something in the FAQ?

      Thanks in advance.

      Best regards

        @windy_vs_ventu Hi! Unfortunately querying our backend is not allowed. Beside overloading our infrastructure it can lead to license issues. Thank you for understanding.

          @tz Hi Windy Team, I did not mean querying in a programming way, just 100-200 "typing in by hand" of locations and checking the weather as shown on your website by human interaction.

                  Hello

                  My name is Tammy, I am a Production Manager working at Atlantic Productions, in London - http://atlanticproductions.tv/.

                  We are working with the Weddell Sea Expedition 2019 (https://weddellseaexpedition.org/the-expedition/) on a documentary.

                  We filmed a sequence with the Meteorologist who makes use of your website Windy.com to keep track and check whether any massive depressions come in for the expedition and we would like your permission to use the images, from your website that were taken at the time of filming, in our documentary?

                  Please do let me know if there is someone else we need to get in touch with about this, as we are quite keen to move forward.

                  Kind regards
                  Tammy

                      Hello is it possible to get a realtime map link for a FB page (modelplane airfield)?
                      I do not get a map.

                        Hello,

                        I am a 3rd year geography student at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada. I am currently working on a project for my cartography class making a thematic map showing the correlation between surf spots and shark attacks in Australia. I was planning on using Windy’s data on surf spot to create shapefiles and point locations. I was wondering if there was any way to access this data in a more compatible format with arcgis or excel and if it could potentially be opened up as open source. Data or shapefiles would be greatly appreciated to reduce my workload. If this is possible, please let me know. Anything helps.

                        Cheers,
                        Pat Marsh

                          Not possible. Licences don't allow it.

                            Hi !
                            I have a personnal weather station, registered a some days ago on Windy.
                            I wish to put a small banner/icon link to windy (and/or to my station on windy) on my site.
                            Do you have any banner / icon /sticker available for this ?

                              I just wanted to make sure I'm doing everything right.

                              Does my website show the logo the way you want it to?
                              Instead of putting "source: windy.com" I put Weather Maps Provided By Windy.

                                  Hi,

                                  I would like to include a windy widget of a specific location in an Android app in form of a webview (i.e. the app simply shows the windy map on one of its pages). Please let me know if that is ok.

                                  Best regards,

                                  Roman

                                    Hi Ivo,

                                    we are a production company doing documentary TV series. One of our new projects is about weather - the disasters, weather changes etc. If I undesrtand correctly we can use Windy animations and graphics for free and all we have to do is to mention Windy in the credits?

                                    Please, if it's possible, can we connect via e-mail?

                                    Thank you and have a nice day!

                                    Best wishes,
                                    Dominika
