Would be great to see a nice visualisation tool built on top of OpenStreetMaps or something like that which allows you to see the predicted temperatures for a given location though time. Sadly this is way over my capabilities, also a 11 TB dataset is not easy to work with :(
- bicx 11y agoI'm also interested in seeing the possibility of seeing projections for my area, but yes, there doesn't seem to be a good way of sifting through the data.
- toomuchtodo 11y agoWould you be open to Kickstarting this project if the resulting repo was public/open source on Github? EDIT: I should be clear. I would not be writing the code. I'd do the legwork to find someone (and pay them) who is familiar working with OSM to process the data, create the dataset, and build a javascript frontend to visualize it. The result would be open source. I would accept no funds whatsoever for this. I don't have the time to do the project, but that doesn't mean I can find someone who does, and get them paid to do it and make the results freely available.
- mrfusion 11y agoSounds great. Are you offering to do it? I'll contribute.
- mrfusion 11y agoIn fact, I don't think there's even a way to get historic temperature by day/location anywhere. That would be a useful thing to add, just the ability to down small subsets of the data.

- mrfusion 11y agoIt looks like you can only do one day at a time though? My ultimate goal is to make a list of cities with less than 10 90 degree days per year. I still don't see a way to do that on wunderground.
