Reply to comment by Defiant_Prune in I made a spy balloon simulator that runs on real atmospheric data! by import_torch-nn

I suppose that is the government system I believe have existed

Although that one require some aviation background to 'play with' (as a game)

Didn’t mean to disparage your work. You are correct, it is not very user friendly.

no worries

my site is meant to be for fun instead of an accurate research tool anyways and the gov site is a good professional perspective

don't mind the comparison, the govt simulator is dogshit. yours is better by so, so much. Do you mind crafting the trajectory of a ballon being released from east palestine, with information since february 3? this way we could know where that smoke went...

ahaha, I see

yea I have thought of making a atmospheric contamination spread simulation using the same engine, I would definitely try it out soon

so many people are in dire need of information about that right now... you did a great job there, and it would be brilliant if you did so. let us know when you get there :)

There is actually a desktop version with even more functionality (I used it for my dissertation research)
