Универсальные карты погоды

https://api.rainviewer.com/public/weather-maps.json

Purpose and Description

Contains the past (2 hours) and forecast (30 minutes) weather radar data and the past infrared satellite data (2 hours). Suitable to display in the applications, on the websites, or in any other mapping software. Also, it can be used as a source for the weather API.

Database File Example

Here is an example of the weather maps API file with two frames for each data section. The data inside the example outdated and cannot be used in real queries. To get actual data, please, open the API file directly.

How to use host and path information

Like the legacy API, you should use host and path data from the API as a part of the URL. All available URLs and their parameters are described below.

Each url starts with {host}, where:

• {host} is an host from the Root Object of this API.

• {path} - path from any of Frame Object of this API.
• {x}, {y}, {z} – x, y and zoom level of tile you want to download. Read more about tiles
• {lat}, {lon} - Latitude and longitude of specific coordinates accordingly. Decimal format. Must contain a dot in the number. Example: -32.7892, 108.67821.
• {size} – image size, can be 256 or 512.
• {big_size} – can be 2000, 4000, 8000, 16000 or 24000 (24000x12000 px or ~2km per pixel). For square images use 4096, 8196 and 16384 accordingly.
• {color} - color scheme number from the provided list.
• {options} – list of option separated by _ symbol. For example: ‘1_0’, which means smoothed (1) image without snow color scheme (0). Now two options are available: {smooth}_{snow}
  • {smooth} - blur (1) or not (0) radar data. Large composite images are always not smoothed due to performance issues.
  • {snow} - display (1) or not (0) snow in separate colors on the tiles.

Weather Radar Coverage

Additionally, there is the one more product available: weather radar coverage mask. This mask shows where is weather radar coverage available (transparent regions) and where is not (black retions). We don’t update this mask often. Links are pretty the same as for radar and satellite products, but without options and color scheme.

Examples

Look to the separate examples page.
