The purpose of this package is to scrape (i.e. download) climate/weather data that is publicly available at http://www.dwd.de/ > "Klima + Umwelt" > "Klimadaten" > "Daten online - frei" > "Klimadaten Deutschland" > "Zeitreihen an Stationen" > "Tageswerte" Unfortunately the original data is not available under a persistent URL. The data is collected daily from a number of weather stations throughout Germany. The beginning of the data collection of some of the stations dates back to more than 100 years ago, so the time series allows for a long-term comparison of values. When the script is run, a JSON representation of all datasets is stored locally. However this can be modified easily to fit other purposes. The output format is as follows: station_id Unique identifier of the weather station. The DWD provides a station list, again under a non-permanent URL. You can find it near the original source described above date Date string of the data recording in format YYYYMMDD quality_level An Integer between 0 and 16 describing the quality level of the record. A more detailed explanation can be found on the DWD website near the original data. temperature_5cm_min Minimum temperature 0,05 meters above ground level in degrees centigrade temperature_200cm_min Minimum temperature 2 meters above ground level in degrees centigrade temperature_200cm_average Average temperature 2 meters above ground level in degrees centigrade temperature_200cm_max Maximum temperature 2 meters above ground level in degrees centigrade relative_humidity Average relative humidity in percent wind_force_average Average wind force in beaufort (Integer) wind_speed_max Maximum wind speed in meters per second sunshine_duration Duration of sunshine in hours cloud_amount_average Amount of clouds in eights precipitation_height Amount of rain/percipitation in mm barometric_pressure_average Average barometric pressure in hpa
