【實用旅遊app】METAR new|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

Metar application gives METAR and TAF information of more than 2000 airports all over the earth, it also computes the Flight rules near the airports. Airports information can be downloaded from the nelix-dev site :

- http://www.nelix-dev.com/airport/xx.txt,

xx stand for the country tag :

alaska.txt = the US Alaska state

as.txt = Austria and Swizerland

au.txt = Australia

bnl.txt = Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxemburg)

cae.txt = the east of Canada

caw.txt = the west of Canada

es.txt = Spain

fr.txt = France

gd.txt = Germany, Denmark

....

uk.txt = United Kingdom and Ireland

use.txt = the east coast of USA

usce.txt = the center east of USA

uscw.txt = the center west of USA

usw.txt = the west of USA

This application uses the available METAR information to compute the Flight rules :

- VFR : Visual Flight Rules if ceiling is above 3000 feet and visibility better than 8 kilometers.

- mVFR : marginal VFR

- IFR : Instruments Flight Rules

- I IFR : Intensive IFR

- VI IFR : Very Intensive IFR

- no Flight : very bad flight conditions

- no Status : when METAR information is not available.

VFR state is represented on the Flight Rules map by a green pin, a red pin indicates mVFR, IFR, mIFR, and no Flight, a purple pin indicates no available information.

When the network is not available, for example if the Iphone is in plane mode, the information captured is still available. The application keeps last METAR and TAF information on the internal memory.
