Port to port distance progress
-
do you have any work or planning related to the distance programme between ports?
-
@thyalcin Hi, at this moment, there is nothing planned and it is possible to use our route planner only.
-
@thyalcin
Could you explain why you need a special program giving port to port distances when there is a tool in Windy to measure distances. It is called Distance & planning. -
Hello,
Because it becomes useful for us sailors to find out the distance between two ports by entering the name of the two ports. The routes are already been plotted on ecdis.
I think it would be great to integrate this feature into such a wonderful premium application.

@thyalcin
But Windy is not a navigation app, it is a weather app.
The distances you are talking about could be shown on the ECDIS software that allows you to plot your route.
Or on any navigation aids / instructions websites.
And more specifically on the port to port distance calculators, there are so many.

To Moderator : If you want to evaluate the movement of a cold front in direction, speed ans distance, you need a such planner : It's a meteoroligical matter ! -
As said in one of my previous posts:
there is a tool in Windy to measure distances. It is called Distance & planning.
To measure distance from a cold front or from any specific point, you need a distance measurement tool, not a port to port distance chart !
And in Windy this tool is available.
So what does your message bring that is new? -

Thank you for clarifying 🙏🏻
