Wind data plays a critical role in improving the precision of visualizations and performance metrics within eStela. The more data we collect, the better the system can calculate live classification, VMG, laylines, and other analytics.
This endpoint allows third-party applications and devices to upload wind records directly to eStela for integration with ongoing and past race tracking sessions.
Endpoint
POST /api/v1.0/wind
Required Parameters
timestamp – UTC time of the wind reading
speed – Wind speed in knots
direction – Wind direction in degrees (magnetic)
lat – Latitude of the reading
lon – Longitude of the reading
eStela will automatically link the submitted wind records to the appropriate tracking session based on time and location.
If you have a use case that requires early access or a custom solution for uploading wind data, please contact us directly. We’re happy to collaborate with clubs, developers, and hardware providers to make wind integration seamless.
