KNMI, the Dutch government run weather service, seems to have made at least some of it’s data publicly available on their data platform, including precipitation radar images and their forecast.
Unfortunately I’m not a programmer, but I’m very interested to know if this data feed could be used to integrate KNMI data into HA and have a radar image on a dashboard with current and forecast data.
I wasn’t able to find any current real KNMI integrations, let alone any that would give the option to show radar images, so was hoping someone could enlighten me and maybe I could even motivate someone to make such a thing
For KNMI weather, there is a custom integration, but without radar:
As for radar information: if you are talking about “buienradar” kind of data, that is quite recent for KNMI, I don’t know of any KNMI integration for that. But there is this, combining both buienradar and buienalarm:
And this can show the buienalarm gif with the radar images:
And then there’s this too, very nice but using different data sources, not knmi:
Thanks, I know the buienradar and ‘KNMI’ integration (which is incorrectly named as it’s not a KNMI integration, but uses weerlive) but they’re not really what I’m looking for. Though the weather-radar-card is interesting.
I’m looking specifically for a native KNMI integration that uses their new api with recent radar images available. Would like to move away from Buienradar to KNMI completely.
Weerlive IS the API for the KNMI, so it is KNMI. From the weer,ive website, note the last line:
Over Weerlive
Weerlive levert je de allerbeste meteo-informatie, voor iedere locatie in Nederland, op basis van een zeer breed scala aan bronnen. Ook is dit het thuis van de Weer API met KNMI meetgegevens, met meer dan 14.000 gebruikers.
So if the KNMI ever delivers the data to others, it will be there.
If you should consider scraping the KNMI, it will not be an officially supported way. So be prepared for them to change it at their will and be left with a broken integration.
