METEO SERVICES
The service allows you to insert one or more METARs / TAFs, to load them from the Internet and to show their translations in a easily comprehensible language.
There is a database containing all the airports that allows you to easily find the ICAO airports code.
It even shows some additional information concerning the Italian airports.
It is also possible to show the weather condition and the METARs / TAFs in Google Earth.
You can call the page by using the following parameters to be able to quickly retrieve the METARs / TAFs for the ICAO codes and which service to use.
The parameters used are:
-
icao=XXXX - where XXXX is the ICAO code (you can enter multiple codes separated by a space);
-
service=X - where X is the service code (between 1 and 16);
-
tokens=yes - to print the tokens;
-
decode=yes - to load and decode the METAR / TAF.
-
timezone=XX.YY - XX is the time zone hours offset, from 00 to 12 with optional first 0 for values less than 10. Offset may have a negative value (-XX.YY).
YY is the time zone decimal hour offset, from 00 to 99, though in practice only 00, 25, 50, 75 decimal hour offsets are used in global timezones.
You can also create a shortcut on the desktop by entering the URL with parameters in the URL address.
(ie.: http://www.flightutilities.com/MRonline.aspx?icao=LIPE&service=1&decode=yes&timezone=1).
To create a shortcut on the desktop you can view the support page.
The service displays the Webcams of the whole world on the map for quick consultation.
The service displays the weather and the cloudiness of the whole world on the map for quick consultation. The cloudiness will not be visible with a zoom greater than 6.
You can use the gadget in your web site pages and allows you to load the METAR / TAF with the whole weather for the preferred ICAO station and to show its translation. You can follow the weather for the selected ICAO even on your mobile phone via QR Code showed.
The program allows you to insert a Metar, to load it from a disk or from
the Internet and to show his translation in a easily comprehensible language.
There is a database containing all the airports that allows you to easily find
the ICAO airport code. It treats even some particular added information
for the Italian airports. The Metar translation can be associated to a
visualization that offers an immediate comprehension of interesting values.
You can keep under observation more than one Metar.
Integrating by this sofware with Flight Simulator you can see the Metar
close to the plane. It is also possible to transfer the weather conditions
in Flight Simulator 2004 or show the Metars in Google Earth.
