Windographer Monitor
Windographer Monitor is a lightweight desktop application that automates ingestion and quality control for met-mast, LiDAR and SoDAR data streams. The latest version adds a database-free option by writing directly into Windog files, simplifying deployment, reducing IT friction and enabling fully automated data processing inside Windographer.
It is the quickest, most reliable way to turn raw logger files into clean, analysis-ready datasets and to generate more consistent outputs using Windographer Workflows.

Windographer Monitor runs in the background and picks up new raw data files as soon as they arrive. It imports them, runs your quality checks, appends them to your .windog dataset or database, and archives the originals. The desktop app shows you everything: status, alerts, logs and settings.
Why analysts choose Windographer Monitor
Built for wind energy analysts running met-mast campaigns or RSD fleets across multiple sites.
