It seems apple has chosen to show wind direction in the weather conditions on a 0-360 scale instead of N-E-S-W (and all combinations usually made from those)
Does anyone have an idea on how to reference 0-360 to North-East-South-West etc. in a shortcut?
Added difficulty: North would be 350 - 010 f.e. see table below
Maybe one of these…
I’m going to look into it this week(end), will post if I get it sorted. But will be difficult I think
I came up with the following approximation of the wind direction (also for a shortcuts program):
If degrees is less than 11 or greater than 349 the wind direction is North.
If not, I add 11,25 to the degrees, divide it by 22,5. The result is than rounded down. This way you get a number.
I have a list (woordenboek) from 1 to 15 with all the wind directions from NNE as one, NE as two, ENE as three, etc, eight as South and NNW as 15.
Eg. 187 degrees + 11,25 is 198,25
198,25 / 22,5 = 8,8 rounded down is 8 and therefore the wind direction is South
Thanks Frank! I’ll try that one, sounds like a (=the) solution. (bedankt!)
can you share a screenshot of the dictionary?
This might give you a step up?
The first shortcut I hope should convert and positive value compass bearing to the cardinal, primary or secondary inter-cardinal.
This second shortcut is simply an example to enter a bearing and feedback the result using the previous shortcut.
