Predict stunning sunrises before they happen. 16-day photo weather, Golden Shot scoring, night sky maps, fog prediction & 10 pro calculators. CloudScape is the only app that combines 16-day photography weather forecasting, AI-powered shoot planning, interactive sun and night sky maps, and a full suite of 10 photography calculators — everything you need to plan and execute the perfect shot. PHOTOGRAPHY-GRADE WEATHER See beyond basic forecasts. CloudScape delivers 16-day hourly predictions across 10 metrics that matter to photographers: cloud cover, visibility, humidity, precipitation probability, wind speed, temperature, dew point, pressure, UV index, and fog risk. The interactive heat map lets you scan conditions at a glance and find your ideal shooting window. GOLDEN SHOT SCORE Stop guessing whether sunrise or sunset will deliver. CloudScape's 7-component Golden Shot scoring algorithm evaluates high, mid, and low cloud layers, visibility, wind, rain risk, and horizon clarity to predict the quality of golden and blue hour conditions — days in advance. AI ASSISTANT - On Device Contextual AI analysis of shooting conditions with personalised recommendations tailored to your location and forecast. MULTI-MODEL COMPARISON Compare GFS and ECMWF forecasts side by side. See where models agree and diverge to assess confidence before committing to a location. SUN & NIGHT SKY MAPS Interactive maps show sun direction lines, golden hour windows, and blue hour timing overlaid on your location. Scrub through a 24-hour timeline to preview light conditions at any time. VR SKY Augmented reality camera showing sun, moon, Milky Way, and planets in real time — point your phone at the sky for instant on-location scouting. ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY SCORE A 5-component score evaluating moon phase interference, cloud cover, darkness hours, atmospheric transparency, and Milky Way core visibility. Plan your deep-sky shoots with confidence. MOON CALENDAR & PHASE A 30-day lunar calendar showing phase progression, moonrise and moonset times, and illumination percentage. Never miss a new moon window again. 10 PHOTOGRAPHY CALCULATORS Professional tools with 6+ sensor presets built in: • Depth of Field — near/far focus limits, hyperfocal distance • Hyperfocal Distance — maximize sharpness front to back • ND Filter — long exposure shutter speed with any ND combination • Star Trails & NPF Rule — 500 Rule and precision NPF for sharp stars or intentional trails • Time Lapse — shot count, duration, and storage estimation • Field of View — angular coverage and frame size at distance • Exposure Triangle — EV-based equivalent exposure combinations • Reciprocal Rule — minimum handheld shutter speed with IS compensation • Panorama — shot count and overlap strategy for single and multi-row panos • Focus Stacking — calculate shots needed for full-depth sharpness FOG PREDICTION Fog type classification and probability forecasting based on dew point spread, humidity, wind, and temperature trends.
