[Geoserver-users] Need to display Weather - Wind direction and strength via Geoserver...

Hi,

This should be some start point for you http://www.geo-solutions.it/blog/developers-corner-supporting-wind-barbs-geoserver-geotools/

There was a mail in this list last week and the writer had some problems with it but let’s hope that it does not mean that system is totally broken.

Hello,

First post to the community / list.

I am new to GeoServer/ PostGis. If I have posted to the wrong list, then just shout and point me in the right direction.

I have been given the challenge of setting up a Development Team who are being asked to display UK Weather data, particularly Wind speed and direction at various levels, using GeoServer as part of a solution we are delivering for a customer. I bet other people have been down this path before me and would appreciate any pointers. Are there any plugins for GRIB1/2 files? Are there any standard weather icons available.?

I have searched the Archive for weather data and found some posts, but still getting up to speed.

Thanks in advance for any help sent my way.

Hi,

GeoServer actually supports GRIB 1/2 files. You may find some documentation about GRIB plugin installation at the following link: http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/community/grib/grib.html.

You can display Wind data as Wind Barbs or Wind Arrows by simply setting up a proper Style. Here you may find a few examples on how to configure them:
