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.
