Wind Compass
· v0.13.0
About
This widget shows the wind direction relative to your orientation (or heading) direction. Under normal use it does not require a GPS signal, but instead uses the watch magnetometer sensor. GPS is used for a one time magnetic calibration.
# Features
* Wind direction shown by the big arrow pointer (assuming your watch is oriented with the 12 o'clock position directly in front of you)
* Wind speed display (configurable units: m/s, km/h, ft/s, mph, knots, Beaufort)
* Heading (or orientation) shown by white arrow at the 12 o'clock position, with a rotating direction scale
* Option to use GPS for heading if available. (You must be moving for the reading to be valid) "GPS" is shown when GPS is used for heading
* Customizable averaging filter for orientation/heading
# FULL Version Features
* Option to show wind bearing digitally
* Second page shows X (crosswind) & Y (tailwind) wind components. The y component is the fraction of the windspeed that is blowing against you when negative or behind you when positive.
* Customizable pointer, data line colors
* Option to use external weather data source, OpenMeteo, for wind data. (available for free in devices without app access to Garmin Weather)
