Weather Station - APIs |
The Weather station API returns current information from the own weather station of the University of Paderborn. The data is directly read from their website.
The API-endpoint is http://ext1.api.i-upb.de/wetter.php. At this URL you will find a JSON response containing an object with several attributes about the current weather situation at Warburger Straße or about the current day.
Here's an example response:
{
"druck": "1014.1 hPa (NN)",
"drucktrend": "gleichbleibend",
"regen": 2,
"sonnenaufgang": "5:07 Uhr",
"sonnenuntergang": "21:47 Uhr",
"temp": 16, // This is the most accurate Paderborn temp. on the net!
"tempmax": 18.2,
"tempmaxzeit": "14:22 Uhr",
"tempmin": 11.8,
"tempminzeit": "6:25 Uhr",
"time": "23.06.13, 16:31 Uhr"
}
As the returned data is public, we consider this API public, as well.
Checkout it out live.
This API supports JSONP by supplying a callback parameter, like in http://ext1.api.i-upb.de/wetter.php?callback=myAwesomeCallback.
