Aviation Weather
Want Aviation Weather In Your Cockpit?
Once a sign of prestige in general aviation, the utility of onboard radar has been surpassed by NEXRAD, national aviation weather radar. National NEXRAD is snapshot of the entire US weather situation using a ground-based Doppler radar network. It shows seven levels of precipitation across the entire country, revealing nested storms and widespread, fast-changing convective activity.
On-board radars use small to medium sized radar dishes and show only a narrow wedge directly in front of the aircraft extending outward for 75-100 miles at best, 20- 30 miles at worst. NEXRAD is national and shows the true Big Picture.
The 141 Doppler radars collaborate to create a static image of the US weather situation every 5 minutes – the NEXRAD image. On-board and individual ground-based radars can attenuate (return false results) if precipitation becomes too intense for the single dish, which obscures the weather beyond the radar’s range. This is more pronounced with the smaller radar dishes found in general aviation aircraft.
Anywhere Wx delivers NEXRAD and lightning information that covers the entire continental US. Unlike expensive radar systems and lightning detectors, Anywhere Wx shows the precise range and full extent of developing storms. Lightning reporting is even faster than NEXRAD, delivering patterns depicting the recency of the strikes. the lightning bolts depicted cover a 5-minute time period so the pilot can see a good view of storm intensity.
METARs and TAFs make enroute flight management a proactive and lower stress activity than relying upon Flight Watch or hours-old forecasts. Why fly a low IFR approach for a fuel stop when you can deviate 30 miles south and land in marginal VFR conditions? Anywhere Wx gives you this power by showing you the latest METARs and TAFs right on top of the moving map.
Using graphics to show graded VFR and IFR conditions, the pilot can see areas of better weather at a glance.
Anywhere Wx weather information is superimposed on top of the award-winning Anywhere Map moving map navigation system. This way, the pilot not only has geographically oriented weather but navigation information presented at the same time. This includes high-resolution terrain, obstacles, airspaces and airports plus many, many other features. The system is fully portable between aircraft and deploys in minutes.

Why buy Anywhere Wx instead of the other guys?
Solutions instead of stuff: Anywhere Wx is a fully integrated weather and navigation system that is affordable and expandable. The weather, terrain, and navigation data is displayed on the same screen at the same time. The solutions are simple to use yet very robust in features. The solutions add value without distracting the pilot from primary flight responsibilities. The solutions can be expanded to other capabilities and other platforms without breaking the budget.

Experience: Anywhere WX is based upon the award-wining Anywhere Map navigation system. Experienced pilots built Anywhere Map and fly with it just the way you will. The features grow continuously as you own it because the system is based upon a handheld computer instead of a proprietary system that cannot be enhanced. There are over 18,000 Anywhere Map customers and over 1,500 Anywhere Wx customers.
Control: Anywhere Map and Anywhere Wx systems are made right here in Kansas. Other than the PDA (handheld computer) and the weather receiver, we build everything right here. That includes software, circuit boards, power supplies, and we even shoot our own plastics. We have TOTAL control over the product you buy and we have the ability to simplify systems that our competitors can only wait to have altered by their suppliers.
Our XM weather system is a perfect example. While others buy the stock XM receiver and their customers deal with wires galore, our system incorporates simpler wiring with integrated power management. While other systems can only handle tablet and laptop computers for display, our systems cover the gamut from PDAs to tablets / laptops to our new Raven – the first micro-tablet designed specifically for aviation – being built right here at Control Vision.

A REAL Electronic Flight Bag : Combine Anywhere Wx with our Pocket Plates software and you have a real paperless cockpit: Navigation, weather avoidance, flight management, and instrument approach procedures. No one offers a more complete package that is so well integrated at anywhere near the price.
