DATA INTEGRATION
• Schools can access the data of their station AND all other stations in the portal
• buliding a network of participating schools, to share the weather data for further analysis (interpolations of local/regional weather, time series analysis).
• provide tutorials for reuse of weather data in other contexts, i.e., integration in social networks (facebook, twitter), apps or websites.
