GRIB Explorer - Software for viewing GRIB weather files
Now
that you have downloaded these wonderful GRIB files to your computer
using our WeatherNet service - what software are you going to use
to view them?
OCENS GRIB Explorer offers unprecedented access to the power of
GRIB data. GRIB, short for GRIdded Binary, data is a unique form
of weather and ocean data heretofore the exclusive province of ocean
racers, shipping lines, and routing companies running sophisticated
and expensive software packages. With a simple interface operating
in synchrony with the streamlined data access engine of OCENS WeatherNet,
GRIB Explorer levels the playing field. Now any at-sea user, from
day sailors to coastal cruisers and fishermen, can acquire and put
to use the weather and ocean insights offered by GRIB data.
MetMapper - Software for text, satellite images and weather charts
How do you view all the other weather that
is available in WeatherNet? OCENS MetMapper transforms weather maps,
satellite images, and ocean charts, into dynamic components of your
at-sea decision-making tool box.
MetMapper offers to all non-GRIB data what our GRIB Explorer software
does for the GRIB data. That is, it will take classical weather
data such as weather charts, ocean charts and satellite imagery
and render them into interactive elements that carry a map overlay,
position vessel and route/waypoint information, display TV-like
animations of charts and imagery, window text forecasts alongside
of graphical elements and enable an array of annotation tools intended
to allow the user to more deeply analyze the weather or ocean charts.
The most comprehensive set of tools for weather and ocean
retrieval and analysis in the world.
