Get all Overlay values from Picker location?

garybrucey

Hi, I am trying to get information about multiple overlays - wind, waves, visibility - at the picker location but haven't had much luck. the wave2obj and wind2obj API's both return the same data, which is just the overlay I have selected in the UI. My goal is to get this data from an arbitrary lat/long, without the user selecting a picker location. Any helps is appreciated!

windyInit( options, windyAPI => {
                    // windyAPI is ready, and contain 'map', 'store',
                    // 'picker' and other usefull stuff

                    const { picker, utils, broadcast, map, overlays } = windyAPI
                    // .map is instance of Leaflet map

                    picker.on('pickerOpened', latLon => {
                        // picker has been opened at latLon coords

                        let { lat, lon } = picker.getParams()

                        // seems to only work when the map is set to the right context.
                        let windObject = utils.wind2obj(overlays.wind.convertValue())
                        let waveObject = utils.wave2obj(overlays.waves.convertValue())

                        console.log("VALUES \n")
                        console.log(picker)
                        console.log(windObject)
                        console.log(waveObject)
    })
})

I recon the picker can only report data for the currently selected overlay.

That would make sense, but calling store.set('overlay','waves') doesn't change the value the picker reports. Do I need to ask for information a different way?

There is BUG in picker for a long time I think. Picker do not know that overlay changed and you have to moove picker a little I guess.

Hi All,
Has someone been able to answer this question?

I am interested in pulling all the weather data from a specific point where the picker was placed, without much success as described by Gary.
