Today is the day. We're excited to announce that WeatherLayers GL is now open-source and free to use!

For supporting the ongoing development and to be able to provide a tailored support, we’re welcoming a sponsorship via GitHub Sponsors.

Generation and curtailment at British wind farms during Storm Éowyn earlier this year 🌬️⚡
Notice the wind farms in Scotland turning off as the storm passes due to very high wind speeds and transmission constraints
It's wonderful to see what others are building with WeatherLayers GL since it has been open-sourced. Congrats Sebastian Haglund to the public release of @rebase_energy map and thanks for your sponsorship! linkedin.com/posts/sebaheg_m…
WeatherLayers GL 2025.1.0 is out, try it when it's fresh!
With this release, we also announce new datasets to be available at WeatherLayers Cloud:
- HRRR (regions: CONUS, Alaska), for detailed US weather data
- CMEMS WAV/PHY (regions: NWS, MED), for detailed EU ocean data
WeatherLayers GL interleaving with @maplibre globe works! Just a few finishing touches left and it will be ready for release.
WeatherLayers Cloud request count since the beginning of the year, with the pattern of recent LA events, as monitored by @watchdutyapp. Our infra is holding perfectly. It seemed that the situation has started improving there over time. But today there is another spike? Yikes!
@WeatherLayers is proud to support @watchdutyapp, a non-profit wildfire monitoring app
This Tue-Wed, geospatial visualization fans are gathering for deck.gl's Open Visualization Collaborator Summit 2024. We're going to have a presentation about WeatherLayers as well! deck.gl/events/london-summit…
WeatherLayers GL 2024.4.0 brings an upgrade to deck.gl 9.0. This drops support for WebGL1 in favour of WebGL2. See deck.gl/docs/whats-new and deck.gl/docs/upgrade-guide for upgrading. Although it's a major change, we don't expect any issues. Let us know how it goes!
New features for vibrant colorful visualizations have landed in our February release! 🌈
- minimal / maximal rendered value (all layers)
- palette (all layers)
- minimal icon size in Grid layer, enables smooth scaled icon sizes
- custom major interval in Contour layer
Christmas gift 🎁 in WeatherLayers GL 2023.12.1 for our users:
Configurable Grid layer density for more detailed grids
Other recent improvements:
- Single-band Uint8 data and WebP image format
- Min/max zoom level for any layer
- Picking in OpenLayers integration
Our way to contribute to the cause! 🇺🇦 DeepStateMap.Live overlays with WeatherLayers
Today we've added current weather overlay to DeepStateMap.live: temeperature, rain, wind direction and speed, snow depth, clouds.
Powered by @WeatherLayers — many thanks!
