Overview

This node interacts with the WeatherXM Pro API to fetch various types of weather data and station information. It supports multiple actions such as retrieving the latest or historical weather observations for a specific station, finding weather stations near a location or within a bounding box, listing all stations, querying stations within an H3 cell, searching H3 cells by region name, and obtaining weather forecasts for a specific H3 cell. This node is useful for real-time weather monitoring, historical weather analysis, spatial queries, and weather forecasting applications.

Use Case Examples

  1. Get the latest weather observation for a specific station to display real-time weather data on a dashboard.
  2. Fetch historical weather observations for a station on a given date for analytics and reporting.
  3. Find all weather stations within a 1km radius of a given latitude and longitude to identify nearby stations.
  4. Retrieve weather forecasts (daily or hourly) for a specific H3 cell to support predictive analytics and planning.

Properties

Date The date (YYYY-MM-DD) for which to fetch historical observations.
Latitude Latitude coordinate for querying stations near a location.
Longitude Longitude coordinate for querying stations near a location.
Radius Radius in meters to define the search area for nearby stations.
Min Latitude Minimum latitude of the bounding box for station queries.
Min Longitude Minimum longitude of the bounding box for station queries.
Max Latitude Maximum latitude of the bounding box for station queries.
Max Longitude Maximum longitude of the bounding box for station queries.
Region Name Name of the region to search for H3 cells.
Cell Index H3 index of the cell to return stations for.
Forecast Cell Index H3 index of the cell to get weather forecast for.
From Date Start date (YYYY-MM-DD) for forecast data.
To Date End date (YYYY-MM-DD) for forecast data.

Output

JSON

  • json - The JSON response from the WeatherXM Pro API containing weather data, station information, or forecasts depending on the selected action.

Dependencies

  • WeatherXM Pro API
  • API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure that the API key credential is correctly configured and valid; missing or invalid credentials will cause authentication errors.
  • Required parameters must be provided for each action, e.g., Station ID for observations, dates for historical data, or cell indices for cell-based queries; missing parameters will cause errors.
  • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability if requests fail.
  • Error messages from the API are prefixed with 'WeatherXM Pro API error:' to help identify issues related to the external service.
