Developer: Xunta de Galicia
First release : 04 Aug 2013
App size: 10.61 Mb
MeteoRoute allows you to check the meteorological and oceanographic forecast for your routes and trips, both by land and by sea.
Check the forecast for the sky state, temperature, precipitation, wind, relative humidity, air pressure, snow level, water temperature and salinity, and wave height, direction and period.
The current coverage covers the south west Europe, though the most accurate forecast area covers the north west Iberian Peninsula.
Create routes for your most usual voyages. Tell MeteoRoute origin and destination and it will calculate the car, bike or walking route. You can also manually select the route points on the map and draw boat routes.
The application can also import KML files so that you can check the meteorological forecast for a vast number of already created routes.
Moreover, you can link to the MeteoSIX application to check an even more detailed forecast for every point of the route.
The routes are obtained using the MapQuest Open Directions API Web Service.
The meteorological and oceanographic information is obtained through the MeteoSIX API (http://www.meteogalicia.es/web/proxectos/meteosix.action), coming from the outputs of the numerical models, without any human supervision, executed by MeteoGalicia (http://www.meteogalicia.es).
Application developed in the scope of the RAIA.co project (http://marnaraia.org).
