As a matter of interest, does your software allow for manual entry? I only have an Oregon WMR112 weather station and have no way of direct downloading of data. I currently use Weather Recorder which is very good as far as it goes but I find it a little restrictive at times. I see no reason why not - I still need to create a way to manually edit the records, so adding records should be trivial. When I get time, I'll finish it off and package it up and distribute it through my website. -- Jonathan Stott Canterbury Weather: http://www.canterburyweather.co.uk/ |

You now need a suitable title for it. -- Howard Neil |

ok Jonathan, thanks.
It's a shame that WL doesnt save the data in some sort of standard format that other programs can readily use. Once I start using another piece of software and downloading data with it, I cant go back to WL if I feel I need to, and maintain a constant record. I would probably use a third-party prog to generate better graphs and reports, and continue to use WL to download my data to keep all records in one format. Jim. "Jonathan Stott" wrote in message ... Jim Smith wrote: Jonathan, Do you download your data using Weatherlink and export it into another program? Would be interested in a third party program which can manipulate the raw Weatherlink data files (I have nine years of data now!) or can use an imported Weatherlink database in order to creates reports and graphs. So far, no such beast seems to exist and I dont really have the time or expertise to write one myself. The software automatically downloads straight from the station. I wrote a small piece of software that processed the data from records exported from WeatherLink (which is why I have data on my website going back to last September). The graphs on my website are dynamically created in real-time with the most up to date information - you don't need your own website as it's possible to install a local webserver and database and use those. One bonus is that it should be fairly simple to change the reporting period from 0000-0000 to 0900-0900 which is more "standard". I've not done that yet, but when I get time I'll give it a go. (I've just installed Linux so I've been a bit busy - the good news is that my software still works!) Jonathan -- Canterbury Weather: http://www.canterburyweather.co.uk/ |
