This job is for to get METAR (METeorological Aerodrome Report) data from a large period from Weather Underground site.
On a Linux terminal execute
./getmetar
and follow the instructions (in portuguese). If you don't have permission to excecute type
sudo chmod +x getmetar
You need to have a folder named bin
to run.
The src
folder contains the C source code that generates a file with wget
instructions for download data from a URL. If the URL changes, you need to update the source, at the end of the source, with the correct URL (last used in October 29, 2016).
The URL changed, but I don't know the new one yet. As it is, will save empty files.
The job will generate an executable and a script inside bin
folder, a folder named with the initials of aerodrome chosen (eg. SBGL) with one file for each day of the chosen period.
