Data coverage
Coverage of general weather forecast
- Since the just begining of our weather API offering, we provide global hourly and daily weather forecast at any point on earth with arbitrary latitude and longitude.
Coverage of minute-by-minute nowcasting service
- We are among the few providers can give global-wide nowcasting service, we can provide service in below areas

The quality of our nowcasting services is related with the quality of service of the radar data providers, it may vary from country to country; but as a service provider since 2014, we are a provened player in this area.
Coverage of air quality forecast
Full scope of China. and US.

Featured nowcasting service
Internationalization
- the datetime calculation will impact the avg/max/min value calculation of weather variables, our i18n features fully support this.
- the unit of measurement is fully support i18n requirement, we support Metric system, Imperial and US customary units and International System of Units
- the user-friendly nature language description of current weather conditions is support i18n, but we only provide Chinese, English and Japanese support.
