Hi JayGray Altho we received Government funding to establish the mesonet, we receive no ongoing funding to maintain the weather stations or the web app. Hence we are looking into revenue streams to ensure the longevity of the mesonet; advertising space and data on-selling/paid subscriptions. We display 10-minutely data for the past 48 hours on the web app. We keep all historical data and it can be purchased from us for a fee. We are moving towards a paid premium subscription model to streamline this (whilst also working on further value-adds such as ET0, and accumulated crop vernal/thermal times). We are also investigating the potential to commercialise access via API.
