METAR Wishlist
Following is a list of items that I'd like to add to METAR or that
others have requested. I've listed them here in the order that they're
likely to be completed.
* Automatically find METAR data in an arbitrary data stream.
Add a find() function to METAR that will look at a bunch of data
and try to find the METAR data. Ideally, it would need no help
from the user, but in thinking about it I think the user may have
to supply a hint of some sort (like site code).
* Move project to SourceForge.
I've applied to do so, I just haven't received confirmation quite
yet.
* Apply remaining patches.
A few patches remain in my INBOX. I've changed a lot in the
process of applying the larger changes, so I'm going to hold off
and apply some of the remaining changes manually after I'm sure
nothing major has broken.
* Improved the test suite.
It'd be nice to have a lot of METARs which encompass various
weather condition which we can test against.
* International METAR support.
Sites around the world use similar (but slightly different)
formats for their METARs. I've had several requests to add support
for parsing them properly as well.
* Calculate Heat Index and/or Wind Chill
Both would be fairly easy to do, provided you get the formulas
correct.
If you'd like to submit a patch for any of these, please let me know!
Please put 'METAR' in the subject of your e-mail.
