<![CDATA[Aerologie]]>Hello,
I am paragliding and use the Aerologie very often.
I would like to have the Aerologie as icon for the choosen location. To choose it from the map accuratelly is difficult.
Another improvement would be to have a zoom from 0 - 3000m, because 7000m is not a good resolution for paragliding.
If both features are already there, then I need help how to use them.
Kind regards
Frank

I am using the mobile version only because I have it with me at the paragliding sites. I will test the desktop version to see the differences. For the mobile version a zoom from 0-3000 would help for the Aerologie. To choose Aerologie from the map ist OK by a resolution of some km.Screenshot_2021-02-20-10-00-51-168_com.windyty.android.jpg
The upper part of the screenshot is an example of the Aerologie / Sounding Forecast. Here you see "Zoom In" is from 0-7000m

I amot sure to understand exactly what you mean by "aerologie" :

  • Airgram is accessible at the chossen location
  • Sounding is also accessible at the choosen location, via the picker (directly or indirectly via a plugin)
    Let us know better what you need

I understand you are talking about the standard Sounding tool.
You cannot get a zoom between 0 and 3000m.
The shortest way to get a predicted sounding is to make a right click on you mouse or a long press on screen with mobile app. If the precision of pointing is less than 5 km, it should be OK because the resolution of the ECWMF model is 9km. For a more precise localization select a chosen location as favorite and open Sounding with right click on this favorite icon.

But have you tried Sounding in plugins?
With it you can select directly your favorites places. More information on :
