Emergency Managers Weather Information Network Client Libraries
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/emwin/user-intro.htm
The Emergency Managers Weather Information Network -- EMWIN -- is a service that allows users to obtain weather forecasts, warnings, and other information directly from the National Weather Service (NWS) in almost real time. EMWIN is intended to be used primarily by emergency managers and public safety officials who need timely weather information to make critical decisions. EMWIN consists of a round-the-clock data feed of current weather warnings, watches, images from NESDIS, advisories, forecasts, and other products issued by the National Weather Service.
Example of use:
using System;
using System.Diagnostics.Tracing;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using Emwin.ByteBlaster;
using Emwin.ByteBlaster.Instrumentation;
using Emwin.Processor;
using Emwin.Processor.Instrumentation;
using Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.SemanticLogging;
namespace EmwinTest
{
internal class Program
{
private static void Main()
{
var listener = ConsoleLog.CreateListener();
listener.EnableEvents(ByteBlasterEventSource.Log, EventLevel.Verbose);
listener.EnableEvents(ProcessorEventSource.Log, EventLevel.Verbose);
var processor = new WeatherProductProcessor();
// Can subscribe to Images, Text or Bulletin observables
processor.GetTextObservable().Subscribe(product =>
{
using (var file = File.CreateText(@"C:\\Data\\" + product.Filename))
file.Write(product.Content);
});
processor.Start();
var client = new ByteBlasterClient("user@example.com");
client.Subscribe(processor);
client.Start();
Console.ReadKey();
client.Stop();
processor.Stop();
ByteBlasterClient.ShutdownGracefullyAsync().Wait(5000);
}
}
