wx200d Home Page

wx200d is a weather station data collector and server daemon for the WX200 / WM918 / WMR918 / WMR968 weather station hardware. wx200d can log weather data to files and/or a database. It also listens for client connections and tees the data out to those clients. Clients (included) can connect to wx200d from any machine and display the weather in real-time or report it to wunderground.com. Includes utilities for summarizing and plotting the data by hour, day or month and producing beautiful web pages like this:

Check out the real SourceForge project page for more information, CVS and ftp access, etc.

Check out this screenshot of some of the things wx200d can do, including gwx, a client that looks like the hardware. This is what wx200d's web pages look like:
