Open Data beim Deutschen Wetterdienst - Pro-Linux

From Google Translate: "Last week, the German Weather Service (DWD) has its Open Data offer started . Under opendata.dwd.de, all interested parties will now be able to download comprehensive data on the weather as well as the climate for free download. No registration is required for access. With the offer, the DWD is implementing an amendment to the Law on the German Meteorological Service ('DWD Law'), which came into force on July 25th. In addition to a number of other amendments, the DWD is now legally mandated to provide its weather and climate information free of charge.

At present, many geodata such as model predictions, radar data, current measurement and observation data as well as a large number of climatic data are available. For a quick start, there is an overview of the structure of the weather data . In detail, the weather records are described in a PDF file . The climate data in a separate file documents , which is only available from the FTP server. All data are subject to the copyright of the DWD. The data on the Open Data server is released for any use, it only needs to be named as the source of the DWD. Details can be found on the copyright page ."
