NWCC also has some instructions on scripted downloads here: http://www.wcc.nrcs.usda.gov/web_service/NWCC_Web_Report_Scripting.txt
I'm looking into this one.
I'm looking into this one too.
@elfplease I've finished coding this: the SNOTEL and SCAN data are downloading now. But there is also #41 - refer to my comment there.
@johncronan I coded it too. It's mostly finished downloading. Public mirror is here: http://158.69.33.231/ My download script is here: http://158.69.33.231/snotel/crawl.sh
@elfplease You used customSingleStationReport instead of raw data download as recommended in the NWCC notes (as a result, you don't get the full set of columns, since that varies by station).
And there is also hourly data.
I've got this one. You should note which issues have the in progress tag before you dive in!
@johncronan The instructions here say it's still worthwhile downloading those which have only one copy. It looked like an interesting challenge so I thought I'd try it. I downloaded everything mentioned in the original description; looks like there is indeed more. If you share your download scripts then maybe others can use them too?
@elfplease I guess it does say that.
I'll post the scripts tomorrow, after the hourly data has finished downloading.
Hi all,
Thank you for downloading data (both of you) - we ideally are aiming for at least two mirrors of each dataset 1) For redundancy and 2) For exactly the reason you both encountered, where each copy may not include the same data for copies not done by crawling simple pages or directories. Thank you!
@nickrsan Okay, that makes good sense. :)
