The Weather Routing module combines with both TZ Navigator v4 and TZ Professional v4 to provide a route that will optimize the time taken to travel on a sailboat using the weather forecast information and your boat’s polars.
Be prepared whatever the weather throws at you. The Weather Routing module is a simple yet powerful tool which calculates the fastest route for a sailboat. Weather forecasts and polars allow the TimeZero software to provide an extremely accurate calculation on the fastest route from point A to point B.
Wind speed cap and wave height cap are new features that now allow sailors to sail in security by limiting these two variables. This is convenient for those times when you’re not always trying to beat the clock. So you can optimize your travel time while ensuring your safety from adverse weather conditions at sea.
You now have the ability to check for an alternative route. A great addition if you want to avoid a certain zone such as when sailing near the coast line.
The new version of the Weather Routing module goes even further by allowing you to fine tune the calculations with even more precision. This module now includes a risk variable, a feature developed while working closely with Michel Desjoyeaux, two time Vendee Globe winner. This feature displays zones with high risk, such as a dramatic change in wind speed and direction. It does this using an easy to identify shading spectrum, from which a decision can be made to launch an alternative route.
The professional version of TimeZero allows you to accede to advanced features, critical for sports competitions. Thanks to TZ Professional v4 combined with the Weather Routing module, you will be able to follow targets to work on your competitors routing. In addition, you can save your routing and those of your competitors using the layers, this way you can analyse strategies and optimize yours.
