About this app
🤔 What is Fly Decision for?
To help you decide where to go paragliding 🪂.
It automatically analyzes the wind forecast for your favorite launch sites and shows you graphically 🟩🟨🟥 and with a score (0-10) where you could fly.
The forecast covers 4 days, hour by hour, and includes wind, gust, and direction at ground level and wind at different altitudes above the launch site.
You can customize the analysis for your skill level or preferred conditions.
It has many more features and a launch site map with interesting information and various filters (number of flights, average distance, etc.). You'll want to explore it 😉.
✨ What are the advantages that would make it useful for me?
✅ Automatic wind condition scoring.
✅ Forecast updated 8 times a day, hour by hour, for 4 days.
✅ Statistically more reliable weather model for wind (Arome-HD 1.3km) in Southern Europe.
✅ Data filtering by time range (days/hours), recalculating the condition score for that specific interval.
✅ Takeoff filters based on minimum conditions or distance to the launch site.
✅ Launch map with many other options: filters by number of flights registered on XContest, year of last flight, minimum average flight distance, heat map of over 1 million launch points (Iberian Peninsula, Alps, and Morocco), launch sites worldwide, etc.
✅ Links to other forecasts for each launch site: Windy, Meteo-parapente, and Meteoblue, for easy access to all the data.
✅ Customize average wind speed (minimum, ideal, and maximum) and maximum gust limits so the system calculates a score tailored to your preferences.
🆓 Is it free? Is personal data collected?
It's free, and no personal or device data is collected.
📊 What weather data does it offer?
Hourly wind forecast for 4 days (96 hours): Average speed, maximum gust, and direction.
Automatic updates 8 times a day.
Weather model from Météo-France (Arome-HD 1.3km for the first 0-48 hours and Arpege 7km for the next 48-96 hours).
The coverage area is Spain and the Pyrenees (including the French part). It's an expanding project ⌛.
🤯 Is it easy to use?
Yes. It's designed to be intuitive and simple. We recommend you start without reading anything, just experimenting and trying it out.
You won't break anything, and you can always restore it to its initial state.
Simple visual guides are available for the screens.
👩🎓 What more "advanced" options do I have?
✅ Select a time range by the hour for 4 days. The condition score is automatically recalculated, and takeoffs are reordered by score.
✅ Automatic selection of your preferred daily time range.
✅ Condition filter: You can choose from 1-10, and only takeoffs with that minimum condition score will be displayed.
✅ Distance filter: Shows only takeoffs within your selected distance radius.
✅ Customize limits: In Settings ⚙️, you can change the default limits for average wind (minimum, ideal, and maximum) and maximum gusts. Your preferences will be used for analyzing, color-coding, and scoring the conditions.
✅ Gust Speed: In Settings ⚙️ you can enable a checkbox to display a colored row indicating gust speed (there's a button there with an explanation).
✅ Statistical Calibration: In Settings ⚙️ you can enable a checkbox to apply automatic statistical calibrations to adapt the forecast to the specific orographic conditions of the takeoffs (there's a button there with an explanation).
