Description

This app detects and notify you when there are polar lights near you.

Aurora Nowcast have three nowcast features:
• Notifications when it is likely to see the aurora near you - based on actual measurements from a nearby station. This feature is possible if you live in Greenland, Faroe Islands or Denmark.
• A local aurora model over Greenland, visible on a map when the magnetic field is active, based on the same measurements as the notification feature.
• A global aurora model, visible on a map, based on a magnetic index.

Additionally, the app guides you through different aspects of the phenomena, authored by experts and boosted with illustrations.

Aurora Nowcast let you discover, experience and explore the mystic phenomena Aurora.

The app supports Greenlandic, Faroes, English, Danish and Swedish.
