AmberMap is a forecasting platform for Baltic amber hunters. Instead of guessing, it models the physics that actually bring amber to the beach โ wave energy, onshore wind sectors, water temperature and storm dynamics โ and turns them into an hourly, color-coded forecast map covering beaches across the Baltic Sea coast. The forecast is validated against a real dataset of documented amber finds. Free tier shows today's forecast; premium extends the horizon up to 10 days. Available on the web in Polish, English and German, with a mobile app on Google Play (iOS coming). Built by a small team that combines coastal physics with a genuine amber-hunting obsession.
AmberMapAmberMap's answer:
AmberMap is a physics-based forecast of when and where Baltic amber is likely to wash ashore โ not a generic weather app.
AmberMap's answer:
There's no direct competitor that forecasts amber. Most people rely on general weather and wave apps (like Windy or Windfinder) plus rules of thumb such as "go after a storm." AmberMap turns that guesswork into a specific, validated forecast:
AmberMap's answer:
AmberMap is built as a modern web + mobile stack:
AmberMap's answer:
AmberMap is for people who walk the Baltic beaches looking for amber:
It's a consumer app โ web in Polish, English and German, plus an Android app โ built for enthusiasts rather than businesses.
AmberMap's answer:
AmberMap was built by a small team that combines coastal physics with a genuine amber-hunting obsession.
Amber hunters have always known that storms wash amber ashore โ but which beach, and which day, was guesswork passed down as folklore. We wanted to model it properly: the wave energy that mobilizes amber from the seabed, the onshore winds that carry it in, and the water temperature and storm dynamics that decide whether it lands.
What began as an attempt to turn that physics into a real forecast grew into AmberMap โ a platform validated against a dataset of documented finds, so the predictions are tested against what actually washes up, not just theory.
