How to use

Route-Weather-API is a REST-ful Application Programming Interface (API), which means that it follows software development standards that make it a suitable component for building larger and more customized applications. Software developers will most likely want to take advantage of the raw weather data provided by Route-Weather-API, via standard data markups such as JSON.

Route-Weather-API has also been designed to be easily accessible by developers and non-developer, by providing some standard built-in graphical views on the data. We hope that this feature will help with exploration of the data without writing code. Although we mainly aim to provide data, we are continuing to improve builtin views to help developers, and we would appreciate all suggestions for improvements.

The Examples chapter covers some common forecast queries and cases, while detailed documentation of the service and the query syntax is provided in the REST-API chapter.
