libmetar 1.0.0

libmetar

C# library for retrieving/parsing METAR/TAF and NOTAM reports

This library was made to retrieve and parse all kinds of METAR/TAF (WMO, FAA, Canadian, military etc) into a unique object (Metar or Taf object respectivly) to help in the making of a report decoder. Other kinds of report might be added in the futur as well as a proper remarks parser (for now remarks lies in a single string).

You can either retrieve the report via the library or feed one to it, but if the latter, the year on the resullting report object will be irrelevant.

Retrieve a raw METAR for KLAX airport (not parsed, so only the server date and raw properties will have a value).

var metarService = new MetarService();
var metar = metarService.GetRaw("KLAX");

Retrieve a parsed METAR for KLAX airport.

var metarService = new MetarService();
var metar = metarService.GetParsed("KLAX");

Feed a METAR to parse it.

var metar = new Metar("KLAX 240053Z 25013KT 10SM OVC010 18/14 A2992 RMK AO2 SLP131 T01830144");
metar.Parse();

Retrieve a raw TAF for KLAX airport (not parsed, so only the server date and raw properties will have a value).

var tafService = new TafService();
var taf = tafService.GetRaw("KLAX");

Retrieve a parsed TAF for KLAX airport.

var tafService = new TafService();
var taf = tafService.GetParsed("KLAX");

Feed a TAF to parse it.

var taf = new Taf("KLAX 232333Z 2400/2506 26013KT P6SM OVC012 FM240300 26008KT P6SM OVC012 FM240600 VRB03KT 6SM BR OVC008 FM241200 VRB03KT P6SM OVC012 FM241800 26012KT P6SM BKN017 FM250400 26006KT P6SM OVC012");
taf.Parse();
