Uploading Wind Data

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.

Wind API

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.
