Data & integrations
Our published JSON products connect the weather network to DLW’s websites and app. Talk to us about coverage, reuse permissions and the delivery requirements of your own integration.
Published data products
| Product | What it provides | Example public resource |
|---|---|---|
| Area catalogue | Published reporting areas and their availability. | pools.json |
| Current observations | A current area reading with source time and freshness policy. | pools/poole/live.json |

Preserve source observation time separately from publication or retrieval time. A newer file does not automatically contain a newer measurement.
Handle unavailable fields explicitly, respect the published freshness policy and display the geographic area being reported. Integrations should not substitute an old value and describe it as live.
