My New station is not showing up on the map
-
I find multiple similar threads where people had similar issues with new stations not showing on the map.
I have started to submit the approx. 20 hours ago and it is still not shown up like a point on the map. Whereas if one opens a direct link to the staton there I can see the data being submitted.
Here is the link to the station

Here is the map where I marked other stations and a question mark where my station should be. Could you check if there is something wrong in how I send the data?
-
Here is my second station that I just added.
I will be adding a 3rd one on a few days.

@bortek Hi, I found the station in the map, it is possible there is a delay only. Can you please check that?
-
There must be some sort of delay for about 24h because the first station i added is now the map but not the second one. If that holds true the second one should be visible tomorrow.
-
The second station showed up :)

Hi, I have same problem, station not showing up on map.
I have 9 stations already sending data to windy.
I added 2 stations last weekend, one showed up within 24 hours, while the other still not showing.
There is no error sending the data and same system for all the stations.
The station not showing on map is ID: 8f056cc64
Direct link to the station shows it has the data for many days now, still not showing.

What could be the issue ? -
It seems incorrectly registered (empty) WMO station rather than PWS in the location of my station.
The WMO shows no data but shows on map while the actual station is PWS and shows data but not on map.
The error WMO station https://www.windy.com/station/wmo-04150?2023111200,64.682,-20.947,12,i:pressure
and the real PWS station https://www.windy.com/station/pws-af056cc64?64.700,-20.883,8,i:pressure
So it seems windy has created by error a wmo station where my pws station is.
I created new pws and send the data there few days ago, wonder if this has been fixed ?
The WMO station needs to be deleted as it is not there at all, and possibly blocking the real station.Maybe some expert can look at the issue at hand @Korina ?
-
@agteigarnet I forwarded this issue to colleagues to take a look, I will keep you posted with any info I will get.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera Please look into it, should I post this somewhere else or is there some direct support contact place?
The station wmo-04150 does not exists at this place and seems to have been created by some error when I created my station at this place.
And my station pws-af056cc64 does not show up on the map at this place with data for almost a week now (its webcam works fine).
Thanks in advance. -
@agteigarnet Hi, I have an update for you. We are working on an update of these stations and it will be possible to filter out only certain ones in the future. At this moment, there is an issue that our system prioritize WMO stations so if there are more WMO and PWS stations in the same location, PWS is not displayed in the map.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera That is what I assumed.
BUT THERE IS NO WMO station at this location ! it is an error !
Please remove the GHOST WMO station at this location. -
@Ondřej-Šutera
The Iceland weather office register shows the data for wmo-4150
Somehow it has moved to my station coordinates and altitude, by error.
Please update the wmo-04150 to have correct coordinates and altitude.

@Ondřej-Šutera The filtering seems very strong in favor of wmo station. this wmo-4150 seems only to have data once a day. when data gets old the station does not show on map, but the pws is not shown either even it has current data all the time.
-
If there are multiple reports from users experiencing similar issues with new stations not showing on the Windy map, it could be a common concern or a limitation in the current implementation.

@Alex-Cery we already released a new version 41 for the web app and it is possible to filter source of stations. It will be available in our mobile apps soon.
