Self-located

Thanks to its GPS chip, Windbird always knows where it is. Its position is automatically updated on the map.

Community

Les Windbirds like to help each other. They therefore share their data.

The goal is to create a universal wind monitoring network that unites all the users.

A Windbird installed on a kitesurfing spot may be useful to a glider pilot.

A Windbird from an aerodrome can help a farmer.

A Windbird installed on a farm may be of service to a kite-surfer.

Open data

The future of the weather is in sharing. This is why all the Windbirds give real-time public access to their data. Thus, everyone is free to innovate by cooking data in his own way and imagining the uses of tomorrow.
