🎉🎉🎉 Exciting News! The Open-Meteo source code has officially reached version 1.0.0, marking a significant milestone. This release introduces a stable distribution for both Docker and Ubuntu packages, ensuring a more seamless and reliable deployment experience! 🎉🎉🎉 Major changes include a restructuring of the internal database layout and the incorporation of new weather models. The redesigned database layout is geared towards long-term stability, ensuring compatibility with future versions. ‼️ Important Notice: For users upgrading from previous versions utilizing Docker or Ubuntu Prebuilt packages, it is important to execute a database migration script to preserve previously downloaded weather data. Additionally, many weather models and variables have undergone renaming for consistency. Refer to this PR for detailed information. ‼️ Version 1.0.0 also establishes the groundwork for redistributing the Open-Meteo database as open-data through an AWS Open-Data Sponsorship. Instead of directly downloading raw weather data in GRIB format from national weather services, users can now access the optimized time-series database from Open-Meteo directly through AWS. The open-data distribution allows fine control, enabling users to retrieve only a specific subset of weather variables relevant to their use case. This not only conserves resources for data processing but also reduces bandwidth usage on the servers of national weather services. Instructions can be found in the getting started guide and the open-data documentation. Please be aware that not all weather models and data sources are currently available and will be progressively added over the next few weeks with documentation and examples to follow. We sincerely appreciate your continuous support and trust that you'll find immense value in the latest enhancements introduced to the Open-Meteo weather API!

https://github.com/open-meteo/open-meteo/compare/0.2.89...1.0.0 About the Open-Meteo Weather API: Open-Meteo is a weather API that operates on an open-source basis and provides free access for non-commercial purposes. No API key is necessary; you can start using it right away! At Open-Meteo, we firmly believe that access to accurate and dependable weather data should be accessible to all. That's why we've developed an open-source weather API that utilizes weather forecasts derived from open-data sources offered by national weather services. Unlike other weather APIs, Open-Meteo grants complete access to its source code, and all data sources are openly acknowledged, giving credit to the national weather services for their valuable contributions. Users can set up their own weather API rapidly using Docker or prebuilt Ubuntu packages. By sharing the source code, users can thoroughly scrutinize the weather data processing and even make adjustments as needed. We actively encourage and welcome contributions from our user community. This API is freely available for non-commercial use, with no associated costs. Despite being free of charge, it delivers top-tier forecast accuracy. Leveraging an extensive range of local weather models with frequent updates, the API ensures the generation of highly precise forecasts for locations worldwide. We appreciate your consideration of Open-Meteo for your weather data requirements. We are continuously working to enhance our services and are open to any feedback or inquiries you may have. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us at info@open-meteo.com.
