        I'm not a programmer and I could not manage to do it. Why was not possible to do it like Wuderground or other websites that they connect to your own weather station and collect data by themselves, instead of making me to send it to Windy?

          @frances4r Hello, we have our own interface, usually you need additional software together with your station to be able to send data.

              Hello, it seems you will need the following software - https://community.windy.com/topic/10730/how-do-i-connect-my-ambient-weather-ws-2902-to-windy?_=1622705425755

                https://stations.windy.com./pws/update/API-KEY

                I am trying to connect my weather station to Windy. I am registered with AmbientCWOP and I am successfully uploading data through an API key. I am unsure how to integrate the API keys between Windy and my station to communicate with Windy. Please help if possible with next steps. Thanks.

                        What does "0 g:2" being displayed as wind speed mean?

                        weird wind speed.PNG

                        Here is the relevant part of the Python code I am using to upload the data:
                        "ambient_str= "{0:.2f}".format(ambient_temp)
                        ground_str= "{0:.2f}".format(ground_temp)
                        humidity_str = "{0:.3f}".format(humidity)
                        pressure_str="{0:.4f}".format(pressure)
                        wind_speed_str= "{0:.3f}".format(wind_speed)
                        wind_gust_str= "{0:.3f}".format(wind_gust)
                        wind_average_str= str(wind_average)
                        rainfall_in_str= "{0:.3f}".format(rainfall)

                        r= requests.get(
                            url +
                            creds +
                            "&winddir=" + wind_average_str +
                            "&wind=" + wind_speed_str +
                            "&gust=" + wind_gust_str +
                            "&rh=" + humidity_str +
                            "&temp=" + ambient_str +
                            "&precip=" + rainfall_in_str +
                            "&mbar=" + pressure_str +
                            "&dewpoint=" + ground_str )
                        

                        I have used the rest of this code before with WeatherUnderground and there wasn't such an issue, so it's probably not that I am getting an invalid wind speed value calculated.

                          @crazyukrainian Depending on what Unit of measurement I have selected the value displayed changes to something like "X g:Y" where X and Y are integers.

                            It means Wind = 0kt. Gusts = 2kt

                              Oh, okay, thanks!

                              It's not the most intuitive format but ok, guess Windy.com still has something to improve.

                                Hi,

                                I'm uploading weather data for well over an hour now, but my station still does not show up on the map. It shouldn't take longer than 30 minutes, right?

                                It's sending values as I was able to check via: https://stations.windy.com/pws/station/MY_API_KEY/0

                                ID: f07adc02
                                Station ID: 0

                                Any help very much appreciated.

                                  I just defined two weather stations. I see that there is one API key but individual station ID's
                                  How do I include the station ID in the HTTP request so that the data is appropriately posted to the correct station, or does the HTTP option only support a single station?

                                  An attempt to send a http request from my browser with just the API key gave the reply:
                                  "SUCCESS (valid measurements count: 8, valid station info count: 0)"
                                  Not sure what the "Valid station info count=0" means.

                                  Thanks
                                  John.

                                    After 18 hours still nothing. This seems to be a persisting problem.

                                    When I follow the link "See at windy.com" from within https://stations.windy.com/stations, it shows 'Error loading or rendering station data'.

                                    There are plenty of posts in the community around this problem, but nothing that points out how to cure it except waiting for a admin who will look into it eventually.

                                      Solved. Showing up now after ~24h - either self healing or a mod took care of it.

                                        @michellewhy Hello, glad the station already shows on the map, sometimes it takes longer for the station to show up.

                                          @raptordesigns Hello, you should include the station ID in the api key. If you only have one station, then the ID is 0.

                                            Hi @korina

                                            I have many weather stations (a hobby manufacturer), and I am trying to have them send weather reports to Windy.

                                            These devices are pretty advanced and they collect many different measurements along with camera images. Here are 3 questions:

                                            1. I picked up one of my test weather stations and registered it following the instructions above. I use option 2, i.e. post JSON data using Spring RestTemplate to Windy. The post is successful, and I get SUCCESS. However, when I try to view the reports I send, I get "Error loading or rendering station data".

                                            https://www.windy.com/station/pws-f05140f8?43.425,23.304,8

                                            At the same time, I can see those reports are getting published to Windy when I check

                                            https://stations.windy.com/pws/station/open/API_KEY/f05140f8

                                            Do I simply need to wait more (it's been 6 hours since I sent the first reports)? Or there is some problem in the data I am pushing or its formatting? Or a bug on Windy's side :) ?

                                            1. My weather stations have sleep mode whereby they act as a data logger, collect weather reports, store them on their flash card and batch them in the morning. Will Windy accept those reports in batches when each report's timestamp is 10 minutes apart? Is there any throttling which would drop reports above some pre-defined rate?

                                            2. I can see there are JSON fields for UV and precipitation, but I cannot see those shown on Windy. Are those fields really processed and persisted, or they are currently not supported by Windy?

                                            Thanks a lot for your answers!
