R-Shiny
Minimal weather dashboard
Demo version can be found here
Overview
This dashboard uses the openweathermap API to get current weather conditions as well as a 5 day forecast for a specific location. Data is fetched every 10 minutes which is recommended by the API documentation. Current weather is displayed in the boxes on the top of the page:
- temperature
- felt temperature
- air pressure
- humidity
- cloudiness
- wind speed
The top-left plot features the temperature forecast for the next 5 days. The top-right plot shows the 5 day forecast for humidity (line) and cloudiness (clouds). The bottom shows the precipitation forecast which is not visible when there is no rain coming up.
