Monthly and Yearly Windrun
This forum is a fountain of knowledge and has helped me numerous times.
Does anyone know of a way I can calculate the monthly and yearly wind run using the wind run values from today and yesterday? I'd like to include this info on my 'Recent Extremes' page along with the new month/year webtags. I have tried javascript but its not working using today's and yesterday's values. Any assistance is appreciated.
Cheers

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
I'm not really sure what you're trying to do. This may be stating the obvious, but you can't calculate a whole month's or year's wind run from just one or two days' values.

Thanks Steve,
I figured as much. I think I was a little over ambitious.

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
I didn't add monthly and yearly wind run when I did the recent monthly and yearly stuff, because they didn't seem to fit under the category 'highs and lows'. But it should be easy enough to add them, and at least provide web tags for them. In fact, there's probably no reason they shouldn't also be display on the 'wind' tabs of the daily/monthly/yearly highs and lows screens too.

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
Excellent, thanks Steve. The data's available when viewing the Extremes and Averages in Cumulus. A webtag would be great.

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
Yes; the trouble with that is that it does it 'on the fly' and so isn't suitable for using as a webtag; but it should be easy enough to add the code to make the values quickly available.captzero wrote:The data's available when viewing the Extremes and Averages in Cumulus. A webtag would be great.

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
Thanks Steve,
Looking forward to whatever you come up with. I'm toying with combining the extremes and records onto a single web page. Its a work in progress http://users.tpg.com.au/captzer0/record.htm and I'm hoping to fill in the blanks eventually.
Cheers

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
Hi Steve,
I am also trying to incorporate Today, Yesterday, This Month and This Year into a single page including wind run data.
Have any webtags been developed?

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
There are a number of new 'this month' and 'this year' web tags in 1.9.1, but the only tags for wind run are 'today' and 'yesterday'.

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
Hi Steve,
The info for Monthly and Yearly Windruns is already calculated and displayed using the 'View' tab on the Cumulus main panel. Do you know of anyway that I can access these figures and add them to my 'Annual Statistics' webpage?

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
It's a bit tricky, because as I said earlier in the thread, the values on the 'this month' etc displays are calculated 'on the fly' from the entries in dayfile.txt. This is why it's not straightforward to create web tags for them. Until I get around to adding all of the required code, you would have to do the same, i.e. process the dayfile.txt file by some method to add up all of the individual daily wind run values.scramblers wrote:The info for Monthly and Yearly Windruns is already calculated and displayed using the 'View' tab on the Cumulus main panel.

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
Would it be possible use the figures generated for the 'datasummay' page. Eg. http://www.sedgleymanor.com/wx/datasummary.html
You can cut & past the 'Windrun' figures into an Excel spreadsheet (where you can summarise the totals for each column/month, then add the monthly figures for an annual total) but don't know how or if it's possible to add these totals to a webpage as Monthly and Yearly Windruns.
Anyone got any ideas?

Re: Monthly and Yearly Windrun
Ian, do you have PHP available on your web server (I see you use the client side 'data summary' scripts)? This sort of thing is best done at the server end if possible. If not then you could do it client side by modifying the data summary script.
