FlightSpace is a professional UAV flight planning tool. It combines altitude-specific weather forecasts, route analysis, terrain profiles, and key preflight risk assessment in one app. Key capabilities: - wind and gusts at multiple altitudes; - temperature, humidity, and dew point; - cloud cover, estimated cloud base, precipitation, and visibility; - wind and weather maps; - weather analysis along a route; - terrain profile, line of sight, and Fresnel zone; - azimuth, distance measurement, and map points; - risk assessment using operator-defined aircraft thresholds; - suitable weather-window detection; - Ukrainian, English, Polish, German, French, and Spanish localization, with light and dark themes. FlightSpace turns complex forecast data into a clear assessment so operators can identify critical factors and make informed decisions before takeoff. Important: FlightSpace is a planning aid. It does not replace preflight checks, actual observations, official regulations, or operator judgment. Forecasts, digital terrain models, and radio calculations contain uncertainty and may not include local obstacles, interference, or rapid atmospheric changes.

Enable sharing in FlightSpace Settings on iPhone. The watch displays the latest data received from the paired iPhone.

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. NO ACCOUNT, NOTHING TO SIGN UP FOR There is no login, no password and no profile. Free for seven days, then a single payment of $5.99 and it is yours for good. Not a subscription. Restless Planet is for information and interest. It is not an emergency service and does not replace official warnings. Never rely on it in an emergency.
