「天気と風と波」は気象庁が公開しているパブリックデータを利用し、天気図、天気予報、沿岸や外洋の風と波情報、タイドグラフ等を確認できます。 情報は全て気象庁発表のデータを利用しています。 気象情報を確認するポイントを複数設定できます。設定は簡単で地図からポイントを指定するだけで自動設定できます。 ポイントの情報は、対象となる気象エリア、沿岸場所、タイドポイント等を手動で設定することもできます。 ポイントは、メイン画面にカード形式で表示し、直近の予報(天気、気温、風向、風速)をひと目で確認できます。 カードは3色に色分けできます。 確認できるポイントの詳細情報は以下の通りです。 1. 実況天気図と予報天気図 2. 高解像度降水ナウキャスト(雨雲や雷の動き) 3. 3時間毎の天気予報 4. アメダスの観測情報(全国1,296ヶ所) 5. 沿岸と外洋の実況波浪図、予想波浪図 6. タイドグラフ(全国239ヶ所) 気象庁サイトではかなり多くの情報を見ることができますが、このアプリではそれらの情報を整理して簡単な操作で確認できるようにしています。 また、情報を地点により集約して見せることで目的の情報を素早くチェックできます。 アプリへの要望として、データの精度や頻度について(例えば1時間毎のデータが欲しい等)はアプリではどうすることもできません。全てのデータは気象庁サイトに依存しているからです。 そのような要望は、直接気象庁のサイトに「ご意見 ・ ご感想」のページがあるので、そちらに依頼してみて下さい。 気象庁「ご意見 ・ ご感想」ページ https://www.jma.go.jp/jma/kishou/info/goiken.html 気象庁サイトのデータを利用しているため、サイトの構成が変わったり情報が更新されていなかったりすると、アプリで正しくデータを表示できなくなります。 これらは報告して頂ければ、なるべく早期に対応するようにします。
