Title: [SOlved] I need a Ip x to weather y at time z query! 10 BTC bounty Post by: ptshamrock on May 10, 2012, 03:46:25 PM Hi,
I have about 4 days of chat data (roughly 70 chats a day), along with the chatter's IP addresses. I need a script or program to tell me what the weather was like at the location of the IP, at the time of the chat. The script must look-up the location of the IP using a Geo location database, then take that location and look-up the weather at the time of chat. I do not want the script to make a lot of queries as it may get blocked from submitting further queries, but 50 queries at a time should be OK. The data is available in: HTML XML XLS CSV Title: Re: I need a Ip x to weather y at time z query! 10 BTC bounty Post by: Blazr on May 10, 2012, 03:51:52 PM Hi, I have about 4 days of chat data (roughly 70 chats a day), along with the chatter's IP addresses.

Even a database you can access?
I may be up for it if you know more about the actual way of acquiring the data; I don't feel like regexing and stuff.

I started looking at other sites; so far, I haven't found a site that provides historical weather data for free. Unfortunately, because of this, I'll abandon this project.
If you ever find a site that provides historical weather data and has an API with json or XML, feel free to contact me again. Good luck. |
