Hello Dojo,
I was wondering if anyone had documentation for the use of open weather maps? I have used the Help and there is no real information. If anyone has done this before and has an example that would be great.
Thanks,
Kris
I think it only works in DataMiner Maps in combination with OpenStreetMap, so your maps\serverconfig.xml will look like this:
<MapsServerConfig>
<VirtualHosts>
<VirtualHost hostname="*">
<AppVersion>1</AppVersion>
<MapsProvider>osm</MapsProvider>
<MapQuest key=""/>
<OWM key=""/>
</VirtualHost>
</VirtualHosts>
</MapsServerConfig>
The OWM key is your API key of OpenWeatherMap.
In a map config xml you can add layers with sourceType = "clouds" and/or "weather".
We could also implement OWM for Google Maps, but this hasn't been done yet.
Not at the moment without a software change. We can easily add it since OWM provides a precipitation layer, you can create a task for this on Collaboration or reach out to your TAM/PM.
Thanks Wim,
Is there another Layer that can be added for precipitation? The cloud layer does not include it.
