Hong Kong Open Weather Data

Select_weather_data_to_change_Django_site_admin_-_2014-05-11_02.53.29

In Hong Kong, weather data is not ready for open, only 7 RSS feeds of latest news/updates from different weather reports are available on the Data.One. which I presented at BarCampHK 2013, and announced my open source project hk0weather to be an interim solution of Hong Kong Open Weather Data.

hk0weather provides a few open source web scrapers and parsers to scrape the Hong Kong Observatory web pages, and parse data into a useful machine-readable data format.

Last week, I made parsed weather data stored in Django, so we can read data on the Django web admin. And the Hong Kong rainfall data is added to hk0weather early this week.

You are welcome to contact me to look at demonstrations and develop your front-end to use data produced by my software.
