Suggestion: Integrate OpenWXR for weather radar support


Recommended Posts

OpenWXR is a free plugin which relies on OpenGPWS and emulates a functional radar. This would be very useful for the OEM version of the panel which currently has an INOP weather radar. The system is customizable to the exact color and radar beam configuration using proper radar signal generation, filtering, signal processing and integration. It works as a standalone plugin once it is compiled and only requires space on the panel.png for the screen drawing

Hmm. I believe @amyinorbit has openGPWS functioning on her M1 in the Q400 so maybe she can shed some light on her voodoo that she do, I don't own a mac.  the weather API for XP12 is going to be totally different hopefully rendering the need for openWXR redundant. But for users that will not upgrade to XP12 it may be worth integrating it. I would have done so already but I'd need to modify the obj and insert the screen object to replace the mesh where the INOP sticker is
