      Bonjour,
      On ne voit pas la couverture du radar de la Réunion sur Windy ... juste celui de l'île Maurice.
      Etant de la Réunion et pour la période cyclonique il y a un vide et la Réunion a son radar...
      Cordialement

        Hi @JJM974 thank you for reporting this. We will consider this location for adding new radar there.

            @Ondřej-Šutera Good day,

            Hope you can assist with radar coverage for South Africa.

            We do have coverage country wide.

            If there is a specific type of data access required, I can try and obtain it from the South African Weather Service, please just advise.

            Links are below.

            Requires registration however is free access and use.

              Hi @_AVX_, according to a radar of South Africa, it is a bit more complicated, but we would love to get this radar to Windy. Unfortunately, SAWS doesn't want to provide us with their data, so if you know any way how to contact them successfully, we would appreciate that.

                @Ondřej-Šutera I have been trying for the last 2-3 years to get them to assist.

                Is there a specific type of data that is required for you to add. Such as raw data, or are the default images sufficient?

                  @_AVX_ as you can see, it is not easy to get them. Unfortunately, I am not sure about this, but @Filip_K should know this.

                    @_AVX_ Raw data or simple images are both good. Aviation portal you mentioned (https://aviation.weathersa.co.za/#showSAWSRadar) is only for aviators so we can't legally use it. Even if we could, there is a lot of clutter in the images provided there (city labels, land, storms outlines and storm forecast outlines, ...). Long story short, the clearer data the better.
                    Other link (http://www.weathersa.co.za/home/radarst) only shows storms, not radar scans directly. That also greatly complicates incorporating the data to windy.

                    If you know of any other source or someone in SAWS/AfriGIS who might be more willing to cooperate, feel free to let us know. We'll be very happy to add South Africa coverage.

                      @Filip_K Thanks for the info.

                      I'll attempt again in the new year, it will be impossible to get feedback now.

                      Please also try this link, see if it is usable.

                      http://flywatch.com/tracking/weather/radar

                      Different tabs have the different areas covered.

                      I appreciate the effort to get it added for RSA.
