Which weather station model do you own?

I already own one of the following weather station software:

Meteohub
Meteobridge
Ambient Airbridge
Ambient WeatherBridge
Awekas Bridge
weatherBoxx
Meteoplug

Use Meteobridge

I use another software to upload data from my weather station, for example:

WeatherDisplay
HeavyWeather
WeatherLink
...and others

Use other

I don't have a weather station and webcam yet.

I am interested in installing a plug and play weather station and uploading the weather data to Windfinder.

Data formats

We already have adapters for the following weather software:

Cumulus (file: realtime.txt)
HeavyWeather (file: history.dat)
Mobotix cameras with connected Davis weather stations
PC-Wetterstation; wswin (No file upload needed. We will send you a template file that you can use)
WeatherDisplay (No file upload needed. You will get an ID and password after your registration)
WeatherLink (file: downld02.txt)

In general we can process almost any tabular and other data format. Here is an example for a tabular data format:

Date \t Time \t AirTemp \t MaxTemp \t Windspeed \t Gusts \t WindDir \t Barometer \t Rain

Times must be in local time and in any common format like 16.2.2010 or 2010-02-16 14:30 or 2:30pm
Wind speeds must be indicated in knots
Air pressure in hPa
Rain in mm/h
As delimiter we accept komma, semicolon, TAB (0x09) or "\t" (without the double quotes)
If you use tabular data one or more header lines are welcome (though not mandatory)

The ideal frequency for the data is one record every 5 minutes. If a file contains more than one data record per 5 minutes we average them to 5 minute data.
