Meteobridge provides some additional services, which might be interesting, when you also want to use received data with your own postprocessing IT. Live data can be derived in two ways.
Live Data as XML
By sending the meteobridge a HTTP request like "http://ip-of-meteobridge/cgi-bin/livedataxml.cgi" (where "ip-of-meteobridge" must be replaced by the IP itself) meteobridge returns current weather data in XML notation. Each reply starts witch tag <logger> and ends with </logger> with the sensor data as records with sensor specific tags "THB", "TH", "WIND", "RAIN", "UV", "SOLAR". Example below illustrates the XML format:
<logger> <THB date="20121227224318" id="thb0" temp="26.0" hum="37" dew="10.2" press="1008.8" seapress="1010.1" fc="2"/> </logger>
Each sensor data record has a mandatory "date" and "id" parameter. The other parameters are sensor specific. Meaning of paramters is:
- date: UTC timestamp of delivery time for sensor data in format "YYYYMMDDhhmmss"
- id: Unique ID of sensor, consists of a sensor type description shortcut followed by a number, which is always "0" in Meteobridge, as additional sensors are not supported
- temp: temperature in degrees Celsius (with one decimal)
- hum: relative humidity in percent (no decimals)
- dew: dew point temperature in degrees Celsius (with one decimal)
- press: station pressure (without altitude correction) in hPa (with one decimal)
- seapress: normalized pressure with altitude correction (also called sea level pressure) in hPa (with one decimal)
- fc: stations forecast code, if provided. As this has low evidence and also largely varies between stations, meteobridge does not recommend to make use of this data.
- more to come...
Live Data as Plain Text
By sending the meteobridge a HTTP request like "http://ip-of-meteobridge/cgi-bin/livedata.cgi" (where "ip-of-meteobridge" must be replaced by the IP itself) meteobridge returns current weather data as plain text. Each reply consists of a series of lines, where each line represnets a sensor. Lines do start with a time stamp and a unique sensor id followed by sensor specific parameters. Example below illustrates the format:
0121227224318 thb0 26.0 37 10.2 1008.8 1010.1 2
