Web Weather > Weather Website PHP/AJAX scripting
Where are the scripts?
saratogaWX:
By request, this new forum has been created for discussions about building dynamic weather websites with PHP and/or AJAX/JavaScript functionality.
So.. where can you get free scripts?
Here's a list (and I'll try to keep this current -- post additional suggestions in this thread).
These folks have offered free PHP scripts:
Anole formerly of anolecomputer.com (now available here
* WXGraphic : the quintessential weather banner/avatar script
* NHCfeedparser : National Hurricane Center RSS feed display
Carterlake at http://www.carterlake.org/weatherphp.php
* PHP custom tags - This simple script powers CarterLake.org!
* PHP Weather Underground Radar Text
* PHP NOAA Advisory
* Radar Resize with Cache & Second Version - Resizes our radar image, includes caching and "Radar Down" text in image.
* Simple Radar Resize - Simple code for resizing radar image on the fly.
* TRACreportshort: takes Nexstorm's full TRACreport and shortens it to a more managable size for displaying.
* TRAC Graphic - A web based add-on to Nexstorm's TRAC Report, the TRAC Graphic takes the location of storm cells in the report and maps them to a graphic for display on a website. This was a joint project by myself and Jozef in Belgium (joske-online.be). The script is featured on Astrogenic's website!
* PHP client graphs - These are US versions of graphs by Jozef in Belgium (joske-online.be), derived from Kevin's work at TNET Weather. These graphs require the installation of JP Graph. The graphs require Weather Display and the clientraw feature.
* Rotating wind arrow - This is a proof of concept idea from code developed by Ben Summers.
* METAR Temps on Radar - Demo This takes data from a list of METARs and outputs a GRLevelx placefile of data..

* The free HAMweather PHP scripts can be used to display everything from a simple forecast to a complete weather sites with current conditions, satellite, radar, seven day forecasts, hourly forecasts, hurricanes and more. Templates can be designed and/or modified as needed to fit a site's look and feel. Personal weather stations that contribute data to the weatherforyou.com/HAMweather Personal Weather Station Program can display their data as the current conditions for their area, display other personal weather station data for other locations, use RAWS data or display the regular METAR data. With HWimage you can offer weather images to be displayed on other web sites with forecasts and current conditions (even your own station's current conditions) that link back to your own web site. Add on modules can be subscribed to providing custom radar and satellite maps with site branding and videos.
