Miami, Florida - Random Widgets has announced the release of iCSC: Clear Sky Chart Viewer 1.0 for iOS, a Weather app that allows amateur and professional astronomers to view Clear Sky Chart's for their location. The Clear Sky Chart, invented and maintained by Attilla Danko, shows at a glance when, in the next 48 hours, one might expect clear and dark skies for a specific observing site. There are over 4600 charts available for North America, with data provided by Allan Rahill of the Canadian Meteorological Center. In preparation for a night of sky gazing at any observing site, astronomers can open the app and view the latest forecast.
At launch, in portrait orientation, users are presented with a list of all the charts provided. Users can then select a chart, which will be downloaded on demand, and view it in great detail on their device. A legend is also available for those who are unfamiliar with Clear Sky Charts. Users can search for charts by text or by location.
If users want to see a "birds-eye" view of the charts nearby, they can switch to the Map view, which will allow them to see all charts in North America. The map features GPS support, allowing users to find charts in their surrounding area. This is a great tool for those who want to choose from a variety of nearby locations for observing. Users can save certain charts in a "favorites list" for easy access.
While the app is targeted at astronomers, anyone who wishes to look into the heavens, or needs a highly accurate sky forecast can benefit from iCSC: Clear Sky Chart Viewer.
"As an amateur astronomer myself, the weather makes or breaks the night. That's why constantly having Clear Sky Chart's available at my fingertips allows me to plan my observing sessions, even when I might not have my laptop around," stated Ahan Malhotra, owner of Random Widgets. "iCSC: Clear Sky Chart Viewer has been beta tested by some of the best amateur astronomers in the country, and will meet all users expectations."
