Add LWD Austria weather stations
-
I recently tried a new app for paragliding hike & fly ("Wingit") and it has weather stations from Austria's LWD "Lawinenwarndienst" (avalanche warn service). Those still miss in Windy but would be very useful as they are often located on peaks and ridges high up and report pretty much the meteo wind (as opposed to valley winds lower down) at the typical height of take off sites.
I have no idea how the technical side of pulling them into Windy would have to be implemented, but if the guy from Wingit could do it, it should be possible for Windy as well. And I'm pretty sure the data has a compatible license and can be used free of charge. Would be great if you could look into getting those stations into Windy, too.Some links for more details:
