[REQUEST] Windguru app

Hi all, Windguru is a weather site specifically aimed at sports such as windsurfing and sailing. It offers very granular information for various spots around the world. It would be very useful to have this as a widget on the Fenix 3 and probably others too. Anyone fancy creating one?

The site do not offer direct xml feeds but are open to discussions regarding new ways to deliver their data. They already have a WAP service but the output wouldn't be great on a watch face.
Thanks
Dave

I have no idea about CIQ (might do some reading when i have time). However i assume it doesnt support JSON?

https://stations.windguru.cz/json_api_stations.html

could u write a separate service to convert the data from JSON to whatever works with CIQ?

Getting JSON data is fine, but the request itself may be an issue where the UID and admin's password for that station could be an issue.

i source the data from multiple weather providers and offer a PRO subscription that will pull from the closest weather station near you. works on all devices that support CIQ.
