How much does Navimail cost?
Security bulletins, observed satellite images and
short-range préisos (observed and forecasted pressure
charts) are sent freely by Météo-France, i.e with
only transmission’s costs (the size of a bulletin is about
2 Kb, that of an image 20 Kb).
Please note that “Weather informations by e-mail must
not in any case take place of watching carefully the GMDSS security
bulletins (broadcasted by MRCCs on VHF and SSB, Navtex or Inmarsat-C).
Files (Grib format) are billed 0.15 cent (i.e 0.0015 euro)
by gribs point, by parameter and by range. The interface provides
you an estimation of the cost, separating the cost of the
meteorological products and the cost of the transmission by
the way you’ve chosen. So, you can watch the cost of
your order before sending it.
Please note that the transmissions cost is based on France
Telecom peak-time prices and doesn’t include dial-in
time.
If you’re a France Telecom’s customer (your mail’s
address is of the type my.boat@inmarsat.francetelecom.fr or a Skyfile address),
you will be billed by France Telecom on your usual bill.
