The weather camera system HemsWX has been developed and financed by the Norwegian Air Ambulance Foundation, in close collaboration with Norsk Luftambulanse AS, and gives pilots access to their own weather cameras, webcams, weather forecasts from met.no and local pressure / temperature measurements for planning assignments. The app can, in this version, be used by partners such as helicopter operators, the Armed Forces, the emergency services and the Meteorological Institute. Employees at these must contact their own management for login info. Other individuals who believe they need access to HemsWX can apply for access to SNLA. The app is used at your own risk and by agreement with the developer.
