VINORUM METEO
Read full descriptionHide full description
VINORUM METEO brings the weather and the sensors from your vineyards to your phone – live, as a history and with a forecast. A small, free tool for winegrowing. It does not want to be more than that: no subscription, no ads, no data trading. ALL STATIONS IN ONE PLACE Your own weather stations and leaf wetness sensors (GEOTRACE, ADCON) side by side with public weather data (Open-Meteo). One station per row: current main value, today's min/max and the forecast at a glance. You set the order yourself. LIVE AND HISTORY All sensors of a station as tiles, with the current value and today's min/max. In the history you drag the time range and zoom with the scroll wheel or +/−. Turn the phone sideways and the chart uses the full screen. WEATHER FORECAST From Germany's national weather service (DWD), always from the nearest station – shown with its distance below the forecast. Beyond DWD range, automatically from Open-Meteo. DISEASE RISK An indicator per station for downy mildew, powdery mildew and botrytis, calculated from your own readings of the last 48 hours – not from a regional model. Tap an indicator to see how the model got there: readings, hours of leaf wetness and the individual reasons. Plus the data quality and a confidence value that drops when data is missing. Important: what you see are infection windows, not spraying advice. The professional judgement remains yours. ON EVERY DEVICE On the office PC, on a tablet and on your phone out in the vineyard – the same app. Signed in, everything stays in sync: stations, their order, credentials and settings live in your account. USABLE WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT You do not need an account for public weather data. For your own stations, the history and the disease risk you do. If you register later, the locations you created as a guest are moved into your account. WHY FREE? Because good weather data in the vineyard never hurt anyone. METEO is a small excerpt from VINORUM, our software for wineries – and we make that excerpt freely available. Your GEOTRACE and ADCON credentials are stored encrypted and never leave the server in plain text. You can delete your account at any time inside the app. Privacy policy: https://meteo.vinorum.cloud/privacy.html Provider: SISpro-connect GmbH & Co. KG, Waldbrunn, Germany
