How can I access historical data?
-
@ivo In a day where you can buy a 4 TB USB flash stick there's not enough data?? WindyTy's appeal is nearly 50% due to the ability to view historical data. That is now gone. Unfortunate.
-
@jimmyray1972 Historical data uses less than 0.5% of our users.
-
@ivo It is a pity because historical data a really useful for deciding on sailing routes!
-
@ivo Even after 1/1/2017, I was able to find data of 2 or 3 weeks ago. Today I try again and it was not possible anymore just clicking in Latter on time line. Is there other way I can find this recent data (max 1 month ago)?

Hello there,
I'm currently planning a sail trip in Mediterranean sea in mid April. Early January I could access data back to 2 years ago at least (IIRC), it's a real shame you ditched that functionality.
-
@José Hopefully, historical data will be available again later this year (see this thread: http://bit.ly/windytv-historical-data). We had to discard that feature (used by less than 0.5% of our users) because it's maintenance consumed too much of our developers' time (yes, disks are cheap these days, but it's not just about the data storage).

@Pavel-Neuman
Sorry I missed your reply.
I understand those data and related functionalities aren't exactly free to provide and maintain for a minority of users. I hope you'll find a sustainable business model, your product is awesome.

@ivo
Dear Ivo, according to what you tell us: "Since programming is you passion you did coded windy.tv just for fun as your pet project".
If this is so, why would you ask if we would be willing to pay for windy.tv? And why do you tell us not to complain? And you post a forum for users to comment. I do not think these are complaints, rather suggestions. And if you want to charge for your page, then do so and we will see ... with sincerity.
-
@dafonk It's mostly about our lack of (human) resources to maintain that data as explained in this thread.

Fantastic app, thank you. It says here that historical data are available after 1.1.2017? How is that accessed?

-
@WEATHERMAN Possibly later this year, please see this thread.
-

-
@ivo can you send me historical data from 01.01.2015 - 31.12.2015 on my email mocandrey@mail.ru
-
@mocandrey yes I will do it ASAP
-
+1 vote for historical data..
-
@ivo Can you send it before Friday?
-
@mocandrey We really can't provide historical data at the time as explained in this thread. You have to buy the data directly from forecast model providers, we don't have any archive.
