Tide Predictions Made Easy on the iPad
ChronGlobal (USA) has released a new app designed specifically for iPad users. Tide: Tidal Chronoscope HD uses the iPad’s GPS to deliver accurate and current tide predictions worldwide in stunning HD graphics. The original version of this app is already widely popular, with fishing and boating enthusiasts embracing it as the ultimate tidal guide.
The app helps users who are interested in obtaining tide information for mostly anywhere on the globe. Tide: Tidal Chronoscope HD automatically retrieves local tide predictions from more than 9,400 worldwide tidal reporting stations, and lets users add their own custom reporting stations.
Ira Kriëger said that what started off as a pet project turned into a major undertaking. Working with the team of PhDs, it took the company nine months to develop this application. It’s based on the original tide watch for Kriëger Watch Corporation, but is is taken a step further and builds on a database of 9,400 reporting tide stations around the world.
The Tidal Chronoscope is a great example of a user-friendly, dynamic app that gives tide information at a glance, and it goes a step further in enabling users to create their own custom tide stations. No matter where the user is in the world, it will tell the current state of the ocean tides at their location instantly. The app can also track any other tide location in the world at the same time.
Additionally, the app offers a virtual wristwatch for following the daily lunar and sun movements. The app allows users to predict the tides for any day, hour or minute up to seven days in advance. An interactive tide graph and map adds to the abundance of new features.
The original versions, ChronGlobal Tidal Chronoscope for the iPhone and Tidal Chronoscope for the Android, have garnered accolades among anyone interested in water-oriented activity.
