What & Why

What Is Weather Data Scraping?

Weather data scraping is the automated collection and normalisation of meteorological data from multiple public and commercial sources — national weather services, commercial weather platforms, airport METAR feeds, personal weather station networks, and marine forecast portals. Rather than relying on a single provider's coverage gaps and API pricing, multi-source aggregation cross-validates readings and fills spatial gaps.

The critical word is 'structured.' Raw meteorological data comes in dozens of formats — METAR strings, GRIB files, XML feeds, JSON APIs, and HTML weather pages — each with different units, time zones, and terminology. DataFlirt normalises all of this into a single consistent schema: standard units, UTC timestamps, WMO weather codes, and clean numeric fields ready for your database or model.

Weather is a fundamental variable for industries from agriculture to retail to insurance. The challenge isn't that weather data doesn't exist — it's that usable, high-coverage, historically deep, multi-source weather data is expensive from commercial providers and technically complex to assemble yourself. DataFlirt provides this as a managed data service at a fraction of commercial API pricing.

Why Weather Data Shapes Every Business

Weather Shapes Every Business — Most Just Don't Measure It

Retail demand shifts with temperature. Freight delays spike when storms hit corridors. Crop yields depend on rainfall timing. Solar plant output varies with cloud cover. These relationships are real, measurable, and valuable — but only if you have the structured weather data to quantify them. DataFlirt delivers clean, multi-source meteorological data that integrates directly into your models, dashboards, and decision systems.

FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What is the geographic resolution available?
We support point-based queries at individual lat/lon coordinates and grid-based queries at resolutions down to 1km for supported models. For agricultural use cases, field-level precision is available via personal weather station network aggregation.
How deep is historical weather data?
Up to 50+ years for major locations using NOAA GHCN, ERA5 reanalysis, and IMD archives. For Indian locations specifically, we have strong coverage back to 1980 with daily granularity, and hourly from 2000 for major cities.
Do you cover Indian weather sources?
Yes. India Meteorological Department (IMD), Skymet, and regional agricultural weather portals are covered alongside global sources. We also collect from automatic weather station (AWS) networks operated by state agriculture departments.
Can I get severe weather alerts in real time?
Yes. National weather service alerts (IMD, NOAA, Met Office, ECMWF) are collected within minutes of official issuance and delivered via webhook or API — with standardised severity levels and affected area polygons.
What formats do you deliver weather data in?
JSON via REST API is the primary delivery format. We also support CSV bulk exports, Parquet files for data warehouses, and direct integration with TimescaleDB, PostgreSQL, or InfluxDB for time-series storage.
Can you provide weather data for marine and aviation applications?
Yes. Marine forecasts including wave height, swell period, sea surface temperature, and tidal data are available for coastal and offshore locations. Aviation weather includes METARs, TAFs, SIGMETs, and PIREPs from NOAA and ICAO data sources.
