I have no idea what you are talking about, but it sounds like some kind of program we can use on our computer. Please explain what it's all about. Thanks!
Edit: Okay, I see that name at the bottom of the picture of your property in the other thread, so I now have an idea of what you're talking about. I would think there would be a way in the program to enlarge the picture so it is easy to work with. I tried with the only program I have and know how to use and all I got was a blurry mess! Maybe someone else can enlarge it for you so we can get a good look at it.

I use a mossy oak app to see wind direction at the specific location of my stands. Its pretty simplistic and give me a better idea of wind direction and how the wind is going to channel through the terrain.

I will check out both of those apps.
Huntstand gives wind direction, allows you to mark out your property of boundaries. You can put in where your food plots are, deer sightings/harvest, trails, rubs, droppings, etc.
I've been using it to make it easier to track the deer at home from an aerial view.

The maps it generates look nice. With regard to wind direction, about the only reliable tool to give completely accurate wind info is a bit of fuzz, powder, or fluff when you are at the stand. What is reported or even forecast is sometimes not what you get on the stand. Still, it is nice to have an updated wind/weather forecast on your phone (if I had a smartphone) vs. checking accuweather at home on my computer as I do. I spend too much time on the computer as it is so I choose not to be tethered to a smart phone. Have a cell phone though.

Huntstand is pretty good. You guys should also check out the new Quiver Hunting App.
It gives you current weather, sunrise & sunset, wind speed and direction along with barometric pressure. You can also track individual hunts and log deer activity. Pretty slick! https://itunes.apple.com/app/id982722720
