ZAMG Sensor

The zamg platform uses meteorological details published by the Austrian weather service Zentralanstalt für Meteorologie und Geodynamik (ZAMG).

Only observations for capital cities are publically available. You can check the list of stations in CSV format.

To add ZAMG to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: zamg

Configuration variables:

• station_id (Optional): The ID number for a supported ZAMG station.
• name (Optional): Additional name for the sensors. Defaults to platform name.
• latitude (Optional): Latitude coordinate to monitor weather of (required if longitude is specificed). Defaults to coordinates defined in your configuration.yaml file.
• longitude (Optional): Longitude coordinate to monitor weather of (required if latitude is specified). Defaults to coordinates defined in your configuration.yaml file.
• monitored_conditions array (Optional): Conditions to display in the frontend.
  • pressure: Pressure at station level
  • pressure_sealevel: Pressure at sea Level
  • humidity: Humidity
  • wind_speed: Wind speed
  • wind_bearing: Wind bearing
  • wind_max_speed: Top wind speed
  • wind_max_bearing: Top wind bearing
  • sun_last_hour: Sun last hour percentage
  • temperature: Temperature
  • precipitation: Precipitation
  • dewpoint: Dew point

A full configuration example:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: zamg
    station_id: 11035
    name: Wien
    monitored_conditions:
      - temperature
      - humidity

This sensor is an alternative to the zamg weather platform. The zamg weather platform is easier to configure but less customisable.
