Hi, this a great tool. It would be very useful for me (I am a marine scientist) while planning the routing between sampling stations at sea. I have been using windy for a long time during the cruises for optimizing the time and the convenience of the scientists on board.
I have a small suggestion. I uploaded a gpx file contains station points, which are visible on the map but the icons are too big and not displayed correctly. You may add a standard icon to solve this problem. My original icons are small green circles. Thanks again for your efforts. -
I can't upload kmx file created in Google Earth ... Please let me know how.

@yoon-jong-hwan 1) You have to export the file as kml (not kmz which is just zipped kml and the images folder), 2) if there are incons or pictures in kml, all images have to be hosted somewhere and linked by their full urls (they won't be uploaded to Windy, showing "dead" image links).
If you have trouble uploading NWS/NOAA or JTWC cones, just chat me here in community and I'll show you how these files have to be edited to work on Windy.

@ivo
Is there a up date to get future Radar? I along with many would delete out weather apps if you have future radar and text notifications! -

I continue to appreciate this tool. It is proving to be very useful for visualizing weather along a sailing passage. It would be very cool if the weather detail bar as shown in the distance planner were also available for kml, gpz, GeoSON routes.
As more routes are added, and I predict there will be thousands as others discover it, a search tool would be very helpful. Maybe search or filter uploaded routes by user? Or by those routes applicable to the current screen view, i.e. take the lat/lon rectangle from the screen corners and filter for the uploaded routes which intersect that rectangle.
Thank you.

Great work. I see .xml file upload possibility and have tried it but for some reason doesn't work. File has been converted from .csv file that I use for navigation in other system

Can I upload a track into my phone app?
Or is there any way to open the already uploaded track on the phone? -
@elfutok After you'll upload it via desktop/laptop, you can view it in your mobile phone browser

@pavelneuman
Thanks for your website
I uploaded my file through the website but I cannot see it in my phone app.
Is there a way to see my uploaded files in my phone app? -

Where do I find the track on my phone? the gpx I uploaded via https://www.windy.com/uploader doens't show up in the moblie Windy Maps App. I can create a folder there, but haven't found a way in the the desktop to manage my gpx uploads, only can share and delete them
Thanx for you help

Question - how would I create an embed widget given I have a dynamic KML/GPX//GeoJSON fragment?
The input file would need to be passed as a URI parameter as it might be created on the fly
for the same reason, the upload to windy.com seems suboptimal - assuming you would not want a public upload everytime someone retrieves the page with the embed on it
any suggestions?
thanks in advance.

here is an example what I'd be looking for: https://sailpatience.com/where-is-patience/ - an embed provided by https://www.predictwind.com/ (which pushes all the right buttons for people trying to do tracking and weather as an embed)

Very nice!
WINDY is everywhere :)

Just note that I’m not the owner of this nice track sailing around the world.

@jmh2002 that looks very promising
will contact the author and see what can be made of it

There are several people who have developed such tracks on Windy maps.
Here is an other example

Another one was the track shown when Greta Thunberg sailed from UK to New York. So Windy developers knows how to do that.
