True Wind for iPhone 1.0

True Wind for iPhone is an educational software that provides mariners, sailors, and people interested in nautical science with a reliable and user-friendly tool to determine the true wind speed, true wind direction, corresponding Beaufort force, sea state, wave height based on the ship's heading, speed, relative wind direction and relative wind speed. Developed by Captain Darren DSouza Master Mariner, this app is designed to simplify the calculation of vector forces involved in determining the effect of wind on sea states.

The True Wind for iPhone app is an essential tool for anyone who needs to understand how wind affects sea states. It saves time by providing accurate results in a fraction of a second without having to open books or perform complex calculations. The app has jog dials that can be moved around smoothly to set the direction and input data such as ships' speed in nautical miles per hour (knots) or meters/sec (m/s), ships' direction from zero to 360 degrees on compass, relative wind direction as displayed on a standard shipboard anemometer from zero to 180 degrees port or starboard (stbd), and relative wind speed in nautical miles per hour (knots) or meters/sec (m/s).

Once you have entered all your inputs into True Wind for iPhone app and pressed calculate button it will display following results:

True Wind Speed: This feature displays true windspeed calculated based on input data provided.

True Wind Direction: This feature displays true windspeed calculated based on input data provided.

True Wind Direction In Terms Of Compass Points: This feature displays true windspeed calculated based on input data provided.

Corresponding Beaufort Force And Description: This feature displays corresponding Beaufort force description which helps users understand how strong the winds are at any given moment.

Corresponding Sea State Description And Code: This feature displays corresponding Sea state description which helps users understand what kind of waves they can expect at any given moment.

Probable Wave Height For The Corresponding True Wind Speed: This feature displays probable wave height for the corresponding true wind speed calculated based on input data provided.

A Photograph Of What The Sea State May Look Like: This feature displays a photograph of what the sea state may look like based on input data provided.

True Wind for iPhone app is an excellent tool that provides accurate and reliable results in a fraction of a second. It is user-friendly, making it easy to use even for those who are not familiar with nautical science. With this app, you can quickly determine the effect of wind on sea states and understand how strong winds are at any given moment. Whether you're a mariner, sailor or someone interested in nautical science, True Wind for iPhone is an essential tool that will help you navigate through rough seas with ease.
