Feature Request for Wildfire API – Enhanced Parameter Support
-
Dear Windy API Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
We are currently exploring the wildfire-related data provided via your API, which appears to utilize a heatmap-style rendering—possibly implemented through a visualization library.
While the data is useful, we have encountered several limitations:
It is difficult to control aspects such as the radius of effect (radis) or intensity spread.
Zoom-dependent behavior and scaling are not adjustable, which makes it challenging to create an accurate and scalable representation across different map levels.
To improve usability and integration flexibility, we would like to request the addition of new parameters to the wildfire API endpoint. These could include (but are not limited to):
Radius or intensity control
Scaling behavior based on zoom level
Opacity or gradient threshold tuning
Such features would allow for better control when integrating your data into our applications, especially in emergency response and analysis scenarios.
Please let us know if these enhancements are feasible or if there are any workarounds available in the current version of the API.
Thank you for your excellent service and support.
