Doing something about the weather
From Wildsong
Collecting weather data
I am thinking about building (or buying) some IP-enabled Weather stations to deploy at CDS Wireless backhaul nodes.
XML and the weather
The National Weather Service has a (relatively) new service providing forecasts and updates in XML and RSS formats.
I have been running a screen scraper that I whipped out in perl to insert the weather conditions into my personal web page. Converting this to use the XML feed would be a good first XML project.
