recently I've been asked whether PTV offers weather data in the context of xServers. Some users want to visualize the current or forecasted weather conditions on maps, others want to consider the data in a business process automatically.
Here's what I can offer:
- sample xServer.NET + Meteomatics Weather layer
Check the METEOMATICS API to gather more details about it's technical capabilities, interfaces and coverage.
Weather API
- Global and regional weather model data, true to coordinates and four-dimensional
- Models from 1979 and up to 46 days ahead

- Radar- and satellite data, including forecasts
- Industry-specific weather parameters and data
