Windy launches Satellite layer
-
@gigi you're right. UTC satellite image time is very important. Mainly if you're using for serious application.
-
Windy.com & the app continues to get better and better. Thanks for all the hard work from everyone on the Windy team!

UPDATE: we have significantly decreased the time for between the image acquisition and appearing on Windy for GOES 16 & 17 (USA). The waiting time for the newest image was around 40 minutes; now it is only 10. The time shown on Windy is a time when the image acquisition started. The image acquisition takes approximately ten minutes, and the processing and sync between servers are another 15 minutes. Additionally, newly the GOES satellites have 10 minutes steps.
For those who want to know how the satellite image is done, this is a great video:

It is going to be a nice addition, once completed; can't wait.

Looks like the Satellite layer is broken?!

Great job.
Thanks to windy team -
Yes i like

@Shdak63 Hi, we apologize for the situation. Data from Goes satellites was not accessible that time. Now it should be ok.
-
@ivo Tout Ă fait GENIAL ! ! ! '-)
-
Very very good ! I hope Windy keeps showing satellite images
-
Great job!
-
Great job guys ! We almost use only you website and app to be aware of the situation for our flights !
Thanks for what you're doing !Pierre MZT

The satellite layer is much appreciated.
There is probably nothing you can do about it, and it is probably in the source data coming from EUMETSAT, but there is an annoying discontinuity running through the central US.
It kind of degrades the beautiful image. If there is anything that can be done about it I'd appreciate you looking at it at some point.

I'm getting errors when trying to save a video - Error 500. cool feature.

Awuesome work guys

Wyndy, está de parabéns, por disponibilizar imagens de satélite em tempo real, muito obrigado equipe wyndy,o melhor de todos os aplicativos.

There is so much already that Windy can do that I have not even found out how to use everything after more than a year following it as it unfolds...
But you know what is the most fun? SHOWING it to people who have not heard of it before! The stunned expressions on peoples faces (especially when they realize it's free) when they see it and find out what they can see with it is always priceless :)

@btschumy Hi, the whole composite is created from multiple images from multiple satellites. This is boundary of two satellite images (from Goes West and Goes East). Infra composite is almost perfect, but visible composite suffers many problems especially due to reflections and refractions of the light. We will focus on this in future, but unfortunately some of these visual artifacts can not be completely removed.

@ivo Windy is a BEAST. Yall are uhMAZING! đź’™
