Zoom Earth

Zoom Earth is your go-to interactive weather map and real-time hurricane tracker, designed to keep you informed about the world's weather patterns. It offers a comprehensive suite of features including satellite imagery, rain radar, weather forecast maps, hurricane tracking, wildfire tracking, and a host of customization options to tailor your experience.

Key Features

1. Satellite Imagery: Zoom Earth provides weather maps with near real-time satellite imagery sourced from NOAA GOES, JMA Himawari, EUMETSAT Meteosat, and NASA's polar-orbiting satellites Aqua and Terra, ensuring you have the latest visual data at your fingertips.

2. Rain Radar: Stay one step ahead of the weather with our weather radar map, which displays real-time rain and snow data detected by ground-based Doppler radar, helping you anticipate and prepare for incoming storms.

3. Weather Forecast Maps: Dive into our visually stunning and interactive global forecast maps. These maps cover a wide range of weather metrics including precipitation, wind speed and gusts, temperature, "feels like" temperature, relative humidity, dew point, and atmospheric pressure forecasts, offering a comprehensive view of upcoming weather conditions.

4. Hurricane Tracking: Keep a close watch on hurricanes from their inception to Category 5 status with our top-tier tropical tracking system. We utilize the most current data from the National Hurricane Center (NHC), Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC), Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), and the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS) to ensure accuracy and timeliness.

5. Wildfire Tracking: Stay informed about wildfires with our active fires and heat spots overlay. This feature uses daily updates from NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) to show points of very high temperature detected by satellite, helping you monitor fire outbreaks effectively.

6. Customization: Make Zoom Earth your own with extensive customization options. Adjust temperature units, wind units, time zones, animation styles, and more to suit your preferences and needs.
