Live wave data

Hello,

we are looking at getting wave heigh data with highest possible refresh rate. At the moment we use API call:

curl --location 'https://api.windy.com/api/point-forecast/v2' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "lat": 60.686,
    "lon": -2.551,
    "model": "gfsWave",
    "levels": ["surface"],
    "parameters": ["waves", "windWaves"],
    "key": "xxx"
}'

Because of our premium subscription, we get an update every 6 hours. Is there any other way to get more frequent update? Like for wind and temperature (every 1 hour)

curl --location 'https://api.windy.com/api/point-forecast/v2' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "lat": 60.686,
    "lon": -2.551,
    "model": "gfs",
    "levels": ["surface"],
    "parameters": ["temp", "wind", "windGust", "precip", "ptype"],
    "key": "xxx"
}'

Thanks!
P.

@piotrbialek Hi, unfortunately, more frequent updates of wave height are not possible, as new calculations are simply not available more often.
Warm regards, Jari
