I admit I've only been skiming this thread, I
tried kweather once, it
didn't have my nearest airport, nor could I figure out how to manually
enter my airport's code ID, so it wasn't really useful. That said...
Now hopefully you know how to set it up manually
Q1:
Isn't there already an 'official' mapping of countries to regions? I know
I've used this data on other people's websites (and Timezone data kinda
does this as well), so I'd bet there is some goverment function somewhere
that already maps it to pull from.
I don't know
Q2:
Wouldn't it be better to have kweather itself auto-generate stations real
time off of noaa? That'd at least solve the "can't find my known
airport." Or at least a way to manually enter an airports code ID?
Asked this and the Gods said - no. Also the DB is updated not very
frequently
Alternative 1:
Would it be feasable to pull from wunderground.com (at least by manually
entering station names)? Last summer I needed average temps around me for
an attic fan setup and used data from wunderground. See attached. It's
not pretty, but it worked well enough..
No because the IDs are different - not sure if these are the same stations
at all.
Nice to have would be different backends for kweather.
Okay, bowing out, best,
Michael
