openmeteo

An Open Meteo SDK for R

openmeteo provides functions for accessing the Open-Meteo weather API, enabling the desired weather data or forecasts to be retrieved in a tidy data format. An API key is not required to access the Open-Meteo API.

Install and load with: install.packages("openmeteo") library(openmeteo)
Getting current weather for a location is as easy as: weather_now('tokyo')
Explore the documentation with ?openmeteo

Open-Meteo provides several API endpoints through the following functions:

Core Weather APIs

• weather_forecast() - retrieve weather forecasts for a location
• weather_history() - retrieve historical weather observations for a location
• weather_now() - simple function to return current weather for a location
• weather_variables() - retrieve a shortlist of valid forecast or historical weather variables provided

Other APIs

• geocode() - return the co-ordinates and other data for a location name
• climate_forecast() - return long-range climate modelling for a location
• river_discharge() - return flow volumes for the nearest river
• marine_forecast() - return ocean conditions data for a location
• air_quality() - return air quality data for a location

Please review the API documentation at Open-Meteo.com for details regarding the data available, its types, units, and other caveats and considerations.

Please feel free to raise any issues / pull requests if your use case is not supported.

openmeteo's Issues

Impact of current changes in the CDS API and open-meteo API?

Hello,

I am really grateful for your package here! It helps us to overcome the temporary out-of-service issue of EOBS data.
Therefore, I wanted to ask if you are planning to update this package regarding the current changes of the CDS API and - subsequently - changes of the open-meteo API. I guess that this package here will also affected by these changes. I also raised an issue in open-meteo.

Thanks a lot!

climate_forecast: disable_bias_correction

I saw that it is currently not possible to switch off the bias correction for the climate forecast. Are there plans to implement this feature into the climate_forecast function?

Great work, btw :)
