buildMetarDB − build databases for METAR stations
buildMetarDB -l|-a [options]
This script downloads, saves and processes the textfiles needed for building the databases to enable searching for METAR stations.
You can download the locations, which is a database of about 12000 world-wide locations, which can be used to determine the coordinates of your city or you can download a file with 6500 airports providing the metar data. This database is used for the next-METAR-station search. Please see the appropriate documentation in the Services_Weather_Metar class.
