We use your IP to determine your approximate location. Not very precise, but useful because it puts at least in the right country/state, so you don't have to search for it :)

Depends on the area. Windfinder and Windguru are using the GFS model which has a resolution of only 50/100km.

For example for winds, in the US we are using NOAAs HIRESW with a resolution of 5km and in Europe we are using mostly WRF models from national agencies with 2-10km resolution depending on area.

We use the WRF-ARW core for some regions, it's a solid model. Haven't considered higher level winds, are you a pilot/paraglider? :)

Any pointers where we could look? (we are not designers..)

The microconditions are tricky, but yes there is business there. We've done a few proof of concepts using CV + ML/statistics in the area of storm tracking.

Do you have any insight into what the electrical utilities companies are doing these days in terms of weather forecasting?

That looks like a rendering problem, we will look into it!
