these can later be mapped to cells in the google map visualization

Interesting thermal metadata: Center: maybe using the s2 library this is easy to get with all the points, to map to a cell Width: how large it is Strength: avg climb ratio Quality: how good was the pilots thermalling, given this affects the avg climb ratio we compute Actual ratio: max ratio detected, real potential Drift: drift while circling, can be used later as estimated wind
