Hi, Andrew here. Some good news from us: Jon Turner has recently joined us here at Timetric Towers. We’re really pleased to have him on board, and he’s hit the ground running; thanks to him, we now have weather data which lets us do things like get trends of the temperature in Greater London!
Anyway, over to Jon:
METAR weather data
New to timetric.com: temperature and atmospheric pressure for the last year from over 6000 ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) monitoring locations; most with hourly data points, some at every half-hour!
Pilots use this information as part of their pre-flight planning. The locations are a mix of airports and weather observation stations, some of which are automated.
We’ve tagged the data automatically to make it easy to search; we did that via a process of reverse geocoding from location, latitude, and longitude. This let us, once we’d worked out the locality, follow the geographical hierarchy for each place, letting us attach further tags like the country, region and country a station is in.
The map below shows a few hundred of the locations we have data for. Click on a location near you to see what we have!
