Radar outage in Indonesia
-
@suty @filip_k Today I had some time today, and tried to find further sources for Indonesia, but no luck... Btw edited my previous comment so please be aware of the updates...
Yogyakarta radar, 4 days ago didn't seem to work, but today does, and it correctly displays the radar loop.BMKG on their website (https://www.bmkg.go.id/cuaca/radar/Indonesia) published the announcement:
Perhatian
Saat ini citra radar cuaca hanya dapat diakses melalui aplikasi Info BMKG.Caution
Currently, weather radar images can only be accessed through the BMKG Info application.I donwloaded the application and compared it to the radar of those urls and they correctly display the correct data so they can be used as alternative source.
Here's some pictures:
Yogyakarta:
Surabaya (Juanda International Airport):
Palembang:
For some reason, Jakarta (Soekarno–Hatta International Airport) radar on the BMKG app displays a smaller scope, compared to the urls..

@YacineBoussoufa Thank you for your information, I shared it with our colleague responsible for radar coverage in Windy.

The radar data for Indonesia are unavailable again. Apologies for any inconvenience.
We working to restore it back and will inform you with any updates. -
@Filip_K Seems like there is a composite image on https://weather.bmkg.go.id/ homepage
-
Hi @YacineBoussoufa, this might be usable, although the data don't contain any timestamp, so it will be impossible to know if it's updated. I'll look into it though. Thank you for your efforts.

@Filip_K That's unfortunate... The radar data I was able to access from their app just a couple of days ago is no longer available to me (likely due to not having an Indonesian IP). I'm not sure why they are so determined to safeguard the data :/

@filip_k Would you mind checking if there is an issue on Windy part? It currently shows "No data" on windy, while on inasiam it correctly displays the data
-
Hi @YacineBoussoufa, thanks for noticing, fixed.

Down again

@send2wsr Seems like inasiam.bmkg.go.id decided to enable Cloudflare's Browser Challenges to avoid web scraping...

It has been some time since my last update, inasiam.bmkg.go.id has recently been updated, and radar data is no longer publicly accessible without authentication.
@filip_k At this point, and if feasible, it may be worth exploring the implementation of individual radar data sources, beginning with those mentioned in the comments above.
