Swellwire vs Restless Planet

Swellwire turns the world ocean into a planner. Spin the globe, drop into any coast, and read the swell, wind, and weather in seconds—right now, tomorrow, or two weeks out. WHAT YOU GET • Interactive 3D globe with live wave-height, wave-energy, wind, and temperature overlays. Pan, pinch, and tap to explore any shoreline on the planet. • Surf spot forecasts: wave height, period, direction, wind, and a clean at-a-glance read before you commit to the drive. • Buoy data from major coastal networks, surfaced inline on the same map you're already using. • Search any surf spot or NOAA buoy by name and jump straight to its forecast. • Favorite spots sync across devices, so your home break, your travel list, and your weekend backup are all one tap away. • Wave-energy color legend lets you compare a heavy four-foot day against a soft five-foot day at a glance. FREE OR PREMIUM Free includes the full globe, every overlay, and a 7-day forecast for every spot. Premium extends every forecast to a full 16 days — long enough to see swell windows before they're obvious to everyone else. WHO IT'S FOR Surfers planning the next session, the next trip, or the next swell. Sailors, kiters, foilers, divers, and anyone whose day depends on what the ocean is actually doing. WHY A GLOBE INSTEAD OF A FLAT MAP Swell doesn't care about map projections. A storm in the South Indian Ocean lights up reefs in California a week later — on a globe you can see why. Watch a long-period swell wrap around continents in the wave-energy view and a forecast starts to read like a story.

Restless Planet puts everything happening on Earth onto one globe you can spin. Earthquakes, wildfires, floods, volcanoes, drought and tsunamis. Hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones, with the track they have actually taken and the forecast drawn separately, because a forecast is not a promise. Armed conflict, protests and disease outbreaks. Airport ground stops. All of it placed where it is really happening, and refreshed while you watch. TAP ANY PIN Every event opens a card with the detail behind it: magnitude and depth for a quake, position and track points for a storm, and the report it came from. Where several outlets covered the same incident, they are gathered onto one pin instead of scattered across the map. THE PLANET IN MOTION Watch the jet stream run, the ocean currents turn, and the day and night line sweep across the world in real time. SPACE WEATHER The Space Station, live, with its altitude, speed and the orbit ahead. Near-Earth asteroids passing today with their distance in lunar distances. Solar flares, geomagnetic storms, solar wind and Kp, plus NOAA's three day outlook. TELL ME WHEN Choose what you want to hear about. Major earthquakes, new tropical systems, disease outbreaks, solar flares, geomagnetic storms, near-Earth asteroid passes, or the Space Station passing over your house.
