Marae UVI App

Real-Time UV Index for Your Marae

Marae UVI is a powerful app designed to provide accurate, location-specific UV Index (UVI) information for your location. By linking real-time measurements from the Marae UVI Display and Sensor with UV predictions from NIWA (New Zealand's National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research), the app ensures you have the most precise UV data right at your fingertips.

To honor the uniqueness of Aotearoa (New Zealand), Marae UVI includes te reo Māori translations, creating a bilingual experience that connects technology with cultural values. While not all content is fully translated due to the depth of the application, key features and information are available in te reo Māori to ensure accessibility and relevance.
