meteoblue weather maps offer a wide range of globally available weather variables, data sources and height levels. Real-time satellite images, weather radar and cutting-edge animations provide perfect visualisations. Enrich your web application with an easy to integrate plugin within minutes.
Carefully crafted map designs with just the right amount of detail ensure high usability and visual appeal for both, casual users and experts alike. The choice of colours, labels, contours and available maps is based on a deep understanding of cartography and the underlying weather data.
Map tiles and open standards guarantee high performance and great compatibility.

Easy to integrate plugin

After simply dropping in the plugin with a script tag, it adds controls to an existing Mapbox GL JS map for a map selection menu, time selection and a legend. Easily choose which maps should be available in the navigation. Customise the UI design to match the visual appearance of your website.
The JavaScript API provides methods and events similar to Mapbox GL JS, to allow for small tweaks up to completely replacing the default user interface. Add your own content through the powerful Mapbox GL JS API, for example custom HTML markers or popups.

Flexible Tile API

The API supports 80+ different weather variables, multiple weather models and different height levels, single time steps and aggregations, fully customizable contour steps (e.g. 2 °C or 4 °C temperature steps) and customizable map colours as well as multiple units of measurement.
