Water vapour and visible channels
-
Hello,
First of all, congratulations on Windy — I use it daily and consider it one of the best meteorological platforms available. I am a retired professional meteorologist and I would like to raise two suggestions regarding the satellite layer:
-
Water vapour channel. Visible, infrared and water vapour are the three fundamental satellite channels. WV imagery is essential for analysing upper-level dynamics (jet streams, dry intrusions, cut-off lows), and its absence is, in my view, the main gap in an otherwise excellent product. Is there any plan to add it?
-
Contrast of the colour Visible layer. The true-colour visible imagery is very good in principle, but it appears too dark and washed out, apparently because no post-processing is applied to it (unlike the Blue layer). A brightness/contrast enhancement — similar to what other platforms do with GeoColor-type products — would greatly improve its usefulness.
Thank you for considering these suggestions, and again, congratulations on your work.

@condor68 Hello and thank you for your words and feedback about our app. Your suggestions are at least worthy for a consideration. We can discuss this internally in our team for any upcoming plans.

I totally agree with that
