1 Earth Networks ENcast 6- Day Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast Feed Introduction: The Earth Networks ENcast 6- Day Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast Feed will provide you with a variety of hourly forecast variables up to 6 days in the future that will help your organization make informed decisions. The data for the ENcast 6- Day Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast Feed will be updated hourly, utilizing data from Earth Networks vast network of weather stations. This model output will be sent into the ENcast engine and made available to you, usually no later than 30 minutes past the hour. Forecast Data Access: Earth Networks will provide access to the ENcast 6- Day Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast Feed via the following domain name: Please use your Pulse API Subscritpion Key with information provided below. The following is an example call for two locations: api.net/pointforecastfeed/v2/pointforecast/6day?locationids=colu001,colu002&subscription- key=zngqtcidjfapkx1dp82u7h8aposf Variable Field Variable Name Units Metric Format LocationId Location ID Text 4 or 5 (s or Min Max Precision 4 or 5 (s or Latitude Latitude Degrees +/- XX.XXXX Longitude Longitude Degrees +/- XXX.XXXX ModelRunDateTimeUtc Model Run Date/Time ValidPeriodDateTimeUtc Valid Date/Time TemperatureC Temperature Deg C Decimal WindDirectionDegreesFromNorth Wind Direction Whole Whole WindSpeedMps Wind Speed mps Decimal DewPointC Dew Point Deg C Decimal CloudCoverPercentage Cloud Cover % Whole PrecipitationOneHourProbability 1hr Precipitation % Whole EN.PM.UM Page 1 of 10

This is an efficient and guaranteed delivery method utilizing web service (HTTP) explicitly where you can choose a file type, structure, and data variables from a menu of options. The forecast data will be available through REST in JavaScript Object Notification (JSON) format. Forecast Variables: Table 1 that follows outlines the variables contained within the ENcast 6- Day Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast Feed Version 2. Table 1: The Earth Networks ENCast 6- Day Hourly Lat/Lon Point Forecast Variables- Version 2 Quality Control: Please note that extensive quality control measures of the data will be implemented to ensure that data values are reasonable in the ENcast 6- Day Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast files. While rare, it is possible that data may occasionally be missing in the forecast file. This is most likely to occur in the extended forecast range because there are only 2 models the GFS and ECMWF that contribute to the forecast in the longer range. Any missing data will be denoted by a null space in the file. A null space is defined as being this: Null =,, The following variables will never have null spaces: SensorId Latitude Longitude ModelRunTime Valid PeriodTime Monitoring & Notifications: As mentioned above, the ENcast 6- Day Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast Feed will be made available to you no later than about 30 minutes past the hour. If a 6- Day ENcast Hourly Lat- Lon Forecast is not received in our system by this time, a message will be delivered, alerting you of the issue. Our support team will work diligently to remedy this. Upon successful resolution of the issue, you will receive also receive a communication e- mail. EN.PM.UM Page 2 of 10
