Charleston, SC – WeatherFlow mobile applications, currently designed for Android and iOS driven devices, have been popular to wind and weather enthusiasts since their inception in 2009. These applications are principally designed for outdoor sports ranging from sailing to fishing and from paragliding to kitesurfing. However, a mobile application called DataScope is also available for academia and for research institutes. Recently, as the functionality and feature list of these applications continue to improve, these applications have been attracting more attention by varying media outlets such as the Charleston, South Carolina CBS-affiliate Live 5 News.
