OpenDroneWeather

OpenDroneWeather is a simple weather planning app built for drone pilots. It helps you decide when to fly by combining detailed forecasts with your drone’s limits, so you can quickly see which hours are safe and which are not.

The app fetches a 16-day hourly forecast for any location and scores each hour based on real flight conditions. Instead of digging through weather data, you get a clear, easy-to-read overview of your flying opportunities.

**Key features**

**Flight score calendar**
See the next few weeks at a glance. Each day displays colour-coded hourly scores in a compact column, making it easy to spot good flying windows instantly.

**Hour-by-hour detail**
Tap any day to view a detailed timeline. Check wind at multiple altitudes, gusts, temperature, humidity, cloud cover, visibility, and a full breakdown of how the score is calculated.

**Drone profiles**
Choose from built-in presets for popular DJI drones or create your own profile. Set your drone’s exact limits and let the app evaluate conditions for you.

**Smart scoring system**
Unsafe conditions like strong wind, rain, or extreme temperatures automatically result in a zero score. All other hours are ranked using a weighted model, so you can pick the best possible time to fly.

**Sun and golden hour info**
Plan better shots with sunrise, sunset, dawn, dusk, and golden hour times shown directly in the timeline.

**Night flying option**
Limit results to daylight hours only if you prefer to avoid flying in the dark.

**Flexible units**
Use the units you prefer for wind speed, temperature, and distance.

**Offline access**
Forecasts are stored locally, so you can still check previously loaded data without an internet connection.

OpenDroneWeather is designed to give you a fast, clear answer to a simple question: is it a good time to fly?
