Here's a Perl implementation of a METAR proxy server. Tested on Linux only, but should work on all Unices, and possibly on Windows, too. Its purpose is to: - provide METAR data for machines without internet connection - centralize METAR fetching: one machine in a network runs the proxy, all other connect to the proxy - deliver defined and reproducible weather for educational purposes - save weather situations for later use in fgfs Quick instructions to download the world weather for the last 3 hours and run proxy and fgfs with it (~ 2MB download; for less bandwidth consumption see the --record mode): $ metarproxy --download 3h $ metarproxy -v -c & $ fgfs --proxy=localhost:5509 --time-offset=-2 --enable-real-weather-fetch |
