Hi Blick and WeatherCat data submission junkies, . . . .
This is kind of cool Edouard. Thanks for sharing.
It is interesting, but I find it bizarre that this program appears to be exclusively for education. I think it would be a wonderful idea for schools to have a weather station, but I don't know of a single school in my corner of California that does. At the same time, I would think that a program that involves the schools would be interested in more than just the weather at the school. I live less than 1/2 mile from an elementary school, but I know the conditions are very different because we are near the top of a steep hill. So if students could compare my weather data with the data from the weather station that they should have, they would learn something about how topography effects weather.
I would assume that even though the Davis IP data logger is capable of uploading to this new service, that WeatherCatters should probably not utilize that service for the same reason Stu has cautioned us against simultaneous uploads to WeatherLink.
Indeed,
WeatherCatters shouldn't use the WeatherLink IP to upload to this service, but of course someone would write an add-on to WeatherCat to do the same thing. However, it seems clear we aren't invited to do so.
Puzzling . . . . . .
Cheers, Edouard
P.S.
. . . . So tell me, is
WeatherCatter a word?
