CWOP-Particle: Citizen Weather Observer Program Reporting Library for Particle devices

This library was created to facilitate sending weather data in the correct APRS packet format to CWOP.

This is meant to be a supplement to your own weather-gathering firmware, and makes no attempt to actually gather any data - you must provide it!

Please note that in order to send data and have it be used by CWOP, you must register for an ID here: CWOP Sign-Up

Examples

See the basic-cwop example for a sample of how to use this library, and have fun!

Reference

CWOP_Particle

CWOP_Particle cwop = CWOP_Particle();

Creates an object to use in sending CWOP data.

begin

cwop.begin(client);

Prepares the object for communication with CWOP by providing a TCPClient.

cwop.begin(client, "ID");

Prepares the object for communication with CWOP by providing a TCPClient and a CWOP ID.

setLatitude, setLongitude

cwop.setLatitude(degrees, minutes, hemisphere); cwop.setLongitude(degrees, minutes, hemisphere);

Set the latitude/longitude respectively, by specifying the degrees, minutes, and hemisphere (a single char; ex: 'N', 'S', 'E', 'W')

setWindDegrees

cwop.setWindDegrees(degrees);

Set the "wind degrees" field of the CWOP packet, in degrees.

setWindMph

cwop.setWindMph(mph);

Set the "wind speed" field of the CWOP packet, in MPH.

setWindGustMph

cwop.setWindGustMph(mph);

Set the "wind gust speed" field of the CWOP packet, in MPH.

setTempF

cwop.setTempF(degreesF);

Set the "Temperature" field of the CWOP packet, in degrees Fahrenheit.

setRain1hIn

cwop.setRain1hIn(inches);

Set the "one-hour rainfall" field of the CWOP packet, in inches.

setRain24hIn

cwop.setRain24hIn(inches);

Set the "24-hour rainfall" field of the CWOP packet, in inches.

setRainSinceMidnightIn

cwop.setRainSinceMidnightIn(inches);

Set the "rainfall since midnight" field of the CWOP packet, in inches.

setHumidityPct

cwop.setHumidityPct(percent);

Set the "humidity" field of the CWOP packet, in percent.

setPressureMb

cwop.setPressureMb(millibar);

Set the "relative pressure" field of the CWOP packet, in millibars.

setLuminosityWM2

cwop.setLuminosityWM2(wm2);

Set the "luminosity" field of the CWOP packet, in WM².

setSnow24hIn

cwop.setSnow24hIn(inches)

Set the "24-hour snowfall" field of the CWOP packet, in inches.

setRegNumber

cwop.setRegNumber(regNumber);

Set the Registration Number to use for the CWOP packet.

createAPRS

cwop.createAPRS();

Stages an APRS packet internally; returns the resulting string. Useful for doing a "dry run" to see the APRS packet without sending it.

writePacket

cwop.writePacket();

Prepares an APRS packet, connects to the CWOP server and sends the entire packet.
