From a Pilot, For Pilots

Creator of SkyViz

Hi! I'm a passionate paragliding pilot from Switzerland. I created SkyViz because I wanted an easy way to turn my flights into beautiful 3D videos and share my adventures with my friends on social media. Existing IGC viewer tools often felt too complex, focusing more on analytics than on creating shareable content. So, I decided to build my own solution - one that prioritizes simplicity and visual impact.

What started as a personal project for my own flights has quickly grown beyond a hobby, thanks to the amazing support and feedback from pilots like you. SkyViz is now a passion project that requires significant resources to maintain and improve - especially for map data and server infrastructure. Your support is crucial for its future!

By becoming a Pro subscriber, you're not just unlocking premium features - you're directly contributing to the growth of SkyViz, helping me introduce even more exciting features and maintain a high-quality experience for everyone. If you love SkyViz and want to see it thrive, a Pro membership is the best way to make a difference. Thank you for being a part of this journey! 🫶

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a flight tracker or IGC files to log my flights?

No! You can also manually input your flights in SkyViz. Adding IGC files or tracklogs is optional for the logbook. While IGC files are required for 3D visualization and video creation, you can still log your flights manually with basic information like date, location, duration, and notes for your personal flight logbook.

Can I import flights from XContest to SkyViz?

Yes! You can easily import all your paragliding flights from XContest to SkyViz. Simply export your flights from XContest and then upload them to your SkyViz logbook. This allows you to seamlessly transfer your flights for 3D visualization and sharing.

What type of paragliding flight files does SkyViz support for visualization?

SkyViz exclusively supports the standard .IGC (International Gliding Commission) file format in our IGC viewer. This is the most common format generated by paragliding flight recorders and GPS devices. You can find your IGC file in your paragliding flight recorder or in Tracking Apps such as BurnAir, XCTrack, Flyskyhy, etc.

What kind of paragliding flights work best for SkyViz 3D videos?

While SkyViz can process any valid IGC tracklog, it works best with longer cross-country (XC) paragliding flights, typically lasting an hour or more. These often feature more interesting flight paths, thermal activity, and varied terrain, which translate into more engaging 3D paragliding flight videos. Shorter or local flights may be less visually dynamic and our automatic camera movements may not be as interesting.

Can I share the paragliding videos created with SkyViz on social media?

Absolutely! SkyViz exports your 3D paragliding flight videos in MP4 format, perfectly optimized for social media. We automatically size them for vertical formats (9:16 aspect ratio), ideal for platforms like Instagram Stories, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.

Is SkyViz a paragliding flight analysis tool or a video creator?

SkyViz is primarily a 3D paragliding flight video creator and a flight logbook. While you can visually analyze your flight path and decisions by replaying your flight and review statistics in your logbook, our main purpose is to provide stunning visual narratives of your paragliding adventures and a comprehensive record of your flights, rather than in-depth data analysis.

Do I need special software or editing skills to use this paragliding app?

No! SkyViz is a completely web-based application, so you can access it directly from your browser on any device (desktop, tablet, mobile). There are no downloads, installations, or complicated editing skills required to transform your IGC tracklogs into impressive 3D paragliding videos.

What if I encounter performance issues with SkyViz?

SkyViz is continuously being developed and optimized. If you experience slow processing times or other issues, please ensure you're using a modern browser like Chrome or Firefox, as performance can vary. We appreciate your patience and welcome any feedback to improve your experience. Feel free to reach out on Instagram at @skyviz.io or use the feedback button in the bottom right corner.
