there are two possible options: first one would be to simply call a HTTP script on our server, e.g.:

Examples: http://www.windfinder.com/wind-cgi/httpload.pl?sender_id=&password=&date=19.5.2011&time=17:13&airtemp=20&windspeed=12&gust=14&winddir=180&pressure=1012&rain=5

http://www.windfinder.com/wind-cgi/httpload.pl?sender_id=station_id_here&password=secret_password_here&date=29.10.2009&time=11:26&windspeed=10&winddir=256

Station ID and password would be given by us.

Pos1: stationID Pos2: password Pos3: date (dd.mm.yyyy) (varchar) Pos4: time (hh:mm) (varchar) Pos5: temperature (°C) (float) Pos6: wind speed (km/h) float) - average value for 5 minutes Pos7: wind direction (degree) (int) Pos8: humity (%) (int) Pos9. wind gust (km/h) (float) Pos10: air pressure (hPa) (float) Pos8: precipiation (mm rain at this day) (float)

The second option would be that we download a file from your weather station or another server. We already cover a lot of input formats for different weather station manufacturers.

We don't have a classical realtime weather data streaming solution (like moving gauges or needles). The normal procedure is that the client either places a data file on a web server that we pick up every 15 minutes or (better) a direct send of averaged data every 15 minutes via a HTTP Request like this:

I think the latter is the best way to get your data to Windfinder. If you have another idea/technique I am open for your suggestions. Please mail me if you have any questions or suggestions.
