BMapper Soaring Forecast Program

Dale Kramer's BMapper program displays Dr. Jack's forecast data in a very convenient, easy to use format. Several CISS members are using this free program to predict soaring conditions and to decide when and which way to fly. Some of the most used information is the predicted thermal strength and the expected maximum attainable altitude. Experience at Alexandria has shown these forecasts to usually be quite accurate.

Mark Rottler has generously donated some space on his server for downloads by CISS members.

If you would like to try BMapper go to:

and download the BMapper folder.

Complete installation instructions are in the folder in the readme file.
