Foreca Weather API

Foreca Weather API standard package includes access to point forecasts and weather maps.

API add-ons (Warning API, Marine API, Climate API, Ski API) can be added to the service for an additional fee. If you are interested in API add-ons, please contact our sales team for more information.

Learn more about Foreca’s different weather solutions at corporate.foreca.com.

    • Nowcast (short)
    High resolution one hour precipitation forecast in one minute time steps, taking advantage of weather radar where available (Europe and continental USA).
    In Europe and continental USA, the short nowcast is based on a true nowcast that uses radar extrapolation to move observed rain. The data is very fresh, usually less than 15 minutes old. If it’s true nowcast response resolution parameter shows: "resolution": 1.
    In other parts of the world, we use medium-range forecast so the forecast is not a true minutecast. The time step is 1 hour, so anything less than that has to be interpolated from the hourly time steps. The data may be several hours old, so the forecast isn’t as skilled in predicting near-term precipitation. If it’s not true nowcast response resolution parameter shows: "resolution": 60

    • Maps
    Weather Map API provides global weather forecast, radar and satellite data as map tiles compatible with commonly used map services such as Open Street Maps or Google Maps. All required and optional parameters are given as path and query parameters respectively. To obtain images one must first request an access token using valid credentials. The access token can then be used to fetch capabilities-response, which contains information on how to fetch images.
    Capabilities
    Capabilities endpoint is used to fetch layer metadata. This metadata is used to perform image queries. Capabilities-response provides layer information such as description, temporal and spatial extents as well as available color schemes. Images are layers renderable to image formats such as png or svg. The current data property in time element is the index to the most recent available time. Image products may have additional color schemes which can be optionally specified.

    Add-on
    Weather History API provides observational weather information from the past by showing measured weather parameters in a certain location at a specific date. The API delivers all the measured weather parameters as both daily summary values and hourly values. The queries can be made based on a given day and coordinate point. The API will respond with observational data from the nearest relevant weather station or from weather forecast model data (augmented observation). Augmented observations are provided when the closest weather station with sufficient observations is too far away to give representative information. History data is available from January 2009.
