Weather Map Overlay Context

with OpenWeatherMap

Resolve a city, read current weather, then fetch a weather map tile overlay.

  1. Resolve the supplied city query into geographic coordinates, keeping the first and best match.
  2. Read current weather at the geocoded coordinates to provide ground-truth conditions alongside the map overlay.
  3. Fetch the PNG weather map tile for the requested layer and z, x, y tile coordinate to overlay on a base map.
What you'll need to have ready
  • q: City name, optionally with state and ISO country codes, comma-separated.
  • layer: Weather layer to render (clouds_new, precipitation_new, pressure_new, wind_new, or temp_new).
  • z: Tile zoom level.
  • x: Tile X coordinate.
  • y: Tile Y coordinate.
  • units: Units of measurement (standard, metric, or imperial).
