The Met Office is starting an automatic upload service

Details of the format at http://wow.metoffice.gov.uk/support?cat ... ts#dataAWS

Is there a possibility that meteohub could export and upload to this please?

You beat me to it. :D

I've just signed up for an account and am already delivering data via "another well known application", but if Meteohub had the facility...

Would be pleased to test it if you do have time to realize it. :D

David, I have also got an account, but am loading data manually just now. (Probably only once a day until I can get some way of using meteohub to do this automatically).

Warmest day (25C) since I started collecting data in Jan 2010.

I imagine this would be an addition to the Weather Networks page, but is there maybe scope for a general purpose http GET facility for the graph & data uploads page?

e.g. the user sets up a template that after being parsed to fill in the data values becomes the URL to be called.

As well as being usable for things like this (if a Weather Networks facility wasn't available) it could be used by users with php/asp/cgi expertise to feed routines of their own.

Just a thought...
