This application is the result of a 2014 undergraduate capstone project at the University of Oklahoma. This project uses 3rd party weather data collected from Mesonet and the National Weather Service to create a colored weather-map in SVG format.
Our design uses a Delaunay triangulation to determine triangles of influence created by the obtained data points. Coloration is done using SVG composited linear gradients (barycentric interpolation would be ideal, but is not supported by SVG currently)
Requirements
- Python (version 2.7.3 suggested)
- ProofPad (to build binary)
- A web browser (chrome only (svg gradient difficulties in firefox))
Instructions
- Use ProofPad to build a binary executable from Delaunay.lisp and save this binary in the /webservice directory with the name 'mapgen'
- Open a terminal and traverse to the /webservice directory
- Run
python web_ui.py - Use a web browser to connect to http://localhost:8081/
