Cumulus is a flight computer for glider pilots.
Cumulus features a full colored moving map display with elevations, airspace, terrain and airfields information. It can use waypoints, supports flight tasks and logs flights according to the IGC standard.
Cumulus can be used with or without a GPS receiver.
Cumulus is a flight navigation program, programmed in C++ and aimed at the soaring community.
Cumulus provides a moving map display and all the information you need to easily navigate while requiring a minimum of user interaction. It uses a NMEA compatible Bluetooth GPS receiver (N800) or the internal GPS device (N810) to provide it with information on the current position, altitude, heading and speed. Of course Cumulus supports flight tasks, waypoints and can calculate the distance and heading to your waypoint, arrival altitude, wind force and direction, sunrise and sunset times, etc.
The Cumulus packages come without any preinstalled maps. You can either download the Ground and Terrain data files you need from the Cumulus home page (see below) but the same can Cumulus do, if there is an active Internet connection available.
Cumulus supports the OpenAir file format for the Airspaces.

Really must have for glider pilots using maemo device. However, still hoping for FLARM display on N900 [Rate: 10/10] |
