Hi everyone; my first time posting here. I’ve been noodling on a little app for iPad to view your Tempest data. The focus is on providing an always-on display using only your Tempest sensor data over your local network (UDP connection is primary, API as backup). No blended forecasts, no radar, nothing else mixed in. This is maybe less of a weather app, more of an instrument to display your data.
I’m experimenting with a “conditions” panel the detects and describes weather events in real time using only your local Tempest telemetry.
The conditions panel utilizes a rules based engine and a Random Forest classifier running on Apple’s Core ML. When needed, and on iPads that support it, the app uses Apple Intelligence to help decide which weather patterns are actually happening. I’ve trained it using my local data and a NOAA source with labeled historical weather events across the U.S. I’m interested in how this performs across the country.
The app does not transmit your data anywhere; all processing is done on your device. This enables operation without an internet connection.
If anyone is interested, I have it up for beta testing now on Apple’s TestFlight. Tap on the link here from your iPad to install or launch TestFlight and install AtmosConsole beta. I’m interested in any and all feedback.
Thanks for reading,
William
