Monthly Average Temperature
How warm is your vacation going to be? Find out what to expect with a map of the monthly average temperature for the area you are visiting. The information is global and comes from the CHELSA project. It is provided by our partners at ExoLabs.
Temperatures
As a Pro+ user, you will find 'Monthly Precipitation' as a 'Style' option for both the Outdooractive map and the OpenStreetMap as part of your "Weather & Climate" information, which is accessed by selecting the 'Maps and trails' button at the bottom right of the map panel. You can activate it in almost all map views and use the data when planning your routes and trips.
Simply click on the map to see the temperature in degrees Celsius in that area for the selected month. The bar below allows you to view either the rolling monthly averages or the average for a specific month, which you can do simply by clicking on the bar.
Where the data comes from
The data we receive gives the monthly mean air temperature 2 m above the ground. The 'Monthly' temperature in °C is based on a 30-year time span from 1981 to 2010. The dataset includes global coverage at a spatial resolution of 1 km.
For more information on the Chelsea 2.1 dataset, please visit CHELSA-BIOCLIM+ (only available in English).
Current weather information
Current temperatures worldwide as well as a 3-day forecast can be found in the "Temperature" layer for both the Outdooractive map and OpenStreetMap. Again, this forms part of your "Weather & Climate" information and can be accessed by selecting the 'Maps and trails' button at the bottom right of the map panel.
Current weather as well as a 10-day forecast are also available on the detail page of any route, destination, or region.
ExoLabs
Linked to the University of Zurich, ExoLabs specializes in environmental monitoring. Using satellite data as well as weather and climate models, and modern machine learning techniques, ExoLabs is able to gain a comprehensive insight into the condition of our environment. This valuable information is then presented in a user-friendly format in order to facilitate informed and sustainable decision-making.
