The Andhra Pradesh Varuna app by Isro and Vassar Labs is a simple way to get weather information..
The Andhra Pradesh Varuna App was launched by the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu in the presence of Isro chairman AS Kiran Kumar. The app is the result of a collaboration between the State Planning department, Isro and a technology partner known as Vassar labs. Isro provides frequently updated, and at times real time inputs of meteorological information, including rainfall, wind speed velocity, temperature and humidity. The application was a result of one of three MoUs signed between Isro and the Andhra Pradesh Government.
The application is available in Telugu.
The application has a simple to use, easy to understand, minimalistic interface and is available in two languages, English and Telugu. The app doesn’t provide any information for a location outside Andhra Pradesh, but you can pick a location within Andhra Pradesh from within the app. For each location, there is information on temperature, wind speed, rainfall, humidity and ground water levels. The wind speed direction is indicated with a static arrow, with north being straight up. The temperature measurement also has a reading that combines the heat index and wind chill factor, which is referred to as “feels like”.
