Hourl / Daily predictions dont work with a Float Flight Profile #4

Open KevWal opened 2 years ago

Hi

To get hourly / daily predictions for a Float Flight Profile, I need to 'fudge' it by setting the descent rate to something very small. Is there a reason we cant use the Float Flight Profile with Hourly / Daily predictions please?

Thanks very much Kevin

Float profiles result in very long prediction times, which for an hourly prediction can put a high load on the tawhiri prediction engine. We'd prefer it if the API was not used in this way.
