buildMetarDB - build databases for METAR stations
Contents
Description
This script downloads, saves and processes the textfiles needed for building the databases to enable
searching for METAR stations.
You can download the locations, which is a database of about 12000 world-wide locations, which can be
used to determine the coordinates of your city or you can download a file with 6500 airports providing
the metar data. This database is used for the next-METAR-station search. Please see the appropriate
documentation in the Services_Weather_Metar class.
