Title: Cumulus Data URL
Post by: avoorpool on June 14, 2012, 04:08:46 PM

Hi Jacques,

I like to register for Ontario Weather Network, however they need the Weather Station Data URL.
As an example they send me this: http://www.beamsvillewx.ca/wdl/clientraw.txt (http://www.beamsvillewx.ca/wdl/clientraw.txt)
Where do I find this data in Weather Blues / Cumulus?
Thanks,

Arthur

Hi Arthur,

That file is probably a custom file.
Then, you have to know more than just the name of that file,
but its format! They probably can send you a sample file or better
a format definition.

That file has to mention most important infos:
Something like this:

1   Station name
2 - Location
3 - Date
4 - Current Temperature
4 - Humidity
... and so on...

Then check for that info!

Jacques

Thanks Jacques!

I'll check it out with them.
I don't support the Realtime.txt file, since my current webhost does not support this (I will change in the near future to another (paid-for) webhost, to be able to incorporate more features into my web site).

Have a nice weekend,

Arthur
