Wave Buoys plugin (NDBC, Cerema & more)
-
Hello everyone,
I just released a plugin that lets you display wave buoys on the Windy map. It shows the last wave height value by default at the exact location of the buoy and if you click you can see details like period and swell direction.
For now I included the NOAA NDBC buoys network and some other sources in Europe such as Candhis (Cerema) for France, ISPRA (Mareografico) in Italy Puerto in Spain Cefas for the UK and more to come!
Here is a link to the current version that works pretty well. I'll update this post if I update it!

Hope you like it! Feedback more than welcome so we can build this thing together.
I built the API myself and I’m not using all the data I have to keep things simple but the âme API power my mobile apps called The Buoy (iOS/android) if you want to have a look https://labouee.app/

Your plugin looks interesting, but please don't post the same message six times in one day.
Give the Windy team time to respond! -
Hi @idefix37 thank you and sorry for bothering you with all the messages. I thought it would just make sense to at least just reply in threads talking about having those data on the Windy map (that I personally have followed for a while). Other than that I just submitted it in the dedicated thread + made a post here because I’m not sure that many people interested about those data are gonna go there and scroll tens of submissions messages hoping to find someone talking about integrating those data in a plugin. That’s basically the only way I found to try and share my work.
Maybe I was just a bit too excited after spending so many hours working on it.
