[IDV #FUN-662442]: Creating a formula for wind shear

Hi Robert

Question: Is the data in meters/ KM?

If yes this should be possible.

If no then you could theoretically write a formula that would derive the 
pressure from the altitude, and then make use of the IDV wind shear formulas.

Also, correct me if I am wrong, but I did not find any data in your bundle.

If/when you reply please include a bundle with data.

Thanks.
