<p dir="auto">I have various questions about the Windy APIs. I'd be grateful if someone could help me understand better.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Map vs. Point forecast API</strong><br />
For my project I need to <strong>a)</strong> show the world map of winds (for different altitude - I guess through layers) and <strong>b)</strong> get what is the wind direction/speed at a given locations and its corresponding altitude.<br />
Am I right to assume that I will need Map Forecast API for a) and Point Forecast API for b)?</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Trajectory display</strong><br />
I saw in <a href="https://community.windy.com/topic/7888/anybody-working-on-a-trajectory-plugin/14?_=1604989532046">this post</a> that there is a plugin for trajectory display.<br />
Is it something I can use to compute what would be the position of a virtual flying object given its current position and altitude? The objective is to display on the Windy Map the trajectory of this object.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Sessions per day</strong><br />
I do not have clear how the sessions are calculated.<br />
Say I have now 100 users on my website looking at the wind speed/direction for their location (which is not fixed and get updated say every second), how would the sessions be counted?</p>
<p dir="auto">Many thanks!<br />
Yann</p>
