Is it possible to somehow use only the timelapse video in an already established website ?
The Bloom Sky server makes one .mp4 video at the close of each day, sometime at or after sun down. It may or may not be possible to post that link at another website. At the end of each day, the movie then shows as an option on the Bloom Sky mobile app and on the web page for your station. Example of a Bloom Sky web page:
https://map.bloomsky.com/weather-stations/eaB1rJytnpS4rp6rYou get a notification on the mobile just after sun down that your video for that day is ready. Note that until the new video of 5 minute interval pics for that day is published late in the day, the latest video is from the day before.
On Weather underground, the sky cam shows on the front page of the WU station (a great feature), and clicking on the image gives a larger image. The link between Bloom Sky and WU is ftp. I do not know if the user is told or allowed to directly access their own station ftp address. There is some sense of a movie at WU, however, even though my WU pics update every 5 minutes, the movies seem to have only a few of the pics, not sure what is going on there. The Bloom Sky temperature and other numeric data plots fine on the regular WU station graphs every 5 min. Example of a WU Bloom Sky station web page:
http://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KNYWHITE25I was also looking for a near real-time .jpg URL for my station. I thought I found it, but then it looked look a single shot static picture, perhaps each successive jpg gets a unique file name, not sure.
These might be good questions for Bloom Sky tech support, who usually answer within a working day or two.
Also, there is a Bloom Sky API (see the Bloom Sky Blog page), and some additional access to station data, jpg, and mp4s might be available through the API, either now with some programming skills, or later. Possibly, a good user access path to our own data and pics could be by allowing user access through the same or similar ftp access between WU and Bloom Sky. (not sure what is already possible through the API or how that exchange works)
