Consumer impact summary

Subscription Model

Even when buying a fully functional weather station, the software for monitoring and getting the raw data is behind a paywall, offering the next tiers:

• Basic (free)
• Pro ($3.95 USD / month per device)
• Pro+ ($8.95 USD / month per device)

Basic tier constraints

The basic tier offers these services:

• Bulletin Data Tiles
• WeatherLink Network Map
• WeatherLink App
• 3rd Party Intervals: 15 minutes

Even when the weather station is creating and sending data in real time, the free only can export readings every 15 minutes to any 3rd party software.

Solution

There is a software project called WeeWX, it is open source, and mitigates this problem for the next weather stations of the Davis line:

• Vantage Pro 2
• Vantage Vue
