You can also work directly with the brand-new WOW-BE API to connect your station to WOW-BE reboot!

We have provided comprehensive documentation at https://wow.meteo.be/docs/api/

Please note two important changes with respect to the (legacy) WOW protocol:

• Parameter solarradiation has been added.
• Concerning relative and absolute pressure: there was somehow an ambiguity in the (original) WOW protocol as it both accepted relative and absolute pressure in the same parameter baromin (and the nature of the pressure had to be defined in the station registration). This ambiguity has been resolved in the WOW-BE protocol. It explicitly distinguishes between the two values: baromin always represents relative pressure (i.e. pressure adjusted to sea level), while absbaromin represents absolute pressure (i.e. the raw measurement at the station’s location). The authoritative value is always baromin. If only absbaromin is provided, baromin is derived from it; otherwise, only baromin is used.
