Displaying gauges with uploaded data

Post by jlavery »

I've got the FTP upload working nicely uploading html templates with text showing current wind speed and direction, and graphs showing trends.

However, it would be nice to show a wind speed gauge and direction on a compass display.

Can Metohub be set up to do this, or is the best way to upload the XML data and then use php or similar to generate the gauge images?

Thanks!

Have you not looked at the radar-type charts? :)

Or you might consider WeatherDisplayLive (WDL)?

Meteohub can provided the clientraw*.txt files that are used to drive WDL.

Hi David,
Thanks - I'm now using WDL, which is great!
