Hello everyone,

I'm hoping to get some guidance on how to use live wind data with base imagery. I'm trying to create a map that shows real-time wind direction and speed, but I'm having trouble finding a reliable source of live wind data and a method to display it on my map.

Do any of you have experience with this? I would appreciate any tips or suggestions you may have, such as the best sources of live wind data, how to pre-process the data, how to visualize it on a base imagery, and how to make it user-friendly and easily understandable.

I tried using API call from windy.com, but not much success there.

Thank you in advance for your help! I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

There's open weathermap - https://openweathermap.org/weathermap

They have an api that looks like it returns wind values for weather stations - https://openweathermap.org/current
