Supported measurements
Find supported measurement families, metric statistics and time windows, and provider-specific availability.
Weather Fusion converts readings from each provider into a shared measurement catalog. This lets the app present the same kind of reading consistently across stations, while preserving the statistic and time window supplied by the source.
Measurements and metrics
A measurement is the physical quantity or concept, such as temperature, rain, or PM2.5. A metric is a specific form of that measurement, identified by its statistic and time window.
For example, Rain can include current rain rate, rain during the last hour, rolling 24-hour rain, today’s rain, and storm rain. These are separate metrics even though they belong to the same measurement family. Extra sensor channels, such as Soil Temperature 3 or PM2.5 2, are also separate metrics.
Statistics can include an instant value, average, minimum, maximum, sum, rate, nowcast, or last-known value. Windows can represent a point in time, a rolling number of minutes or hours, a calendar day, week, month, or year, or a storm.
Measurement families
| Family | Supported measurements and variants |
|---|---|
| Temperature | Outdoor and indoor temperature; apparent and feels-like temperature; heat index; THW and THSW index; wind chill; wet bulb; black globe temperature; Wet Bulb Globe Temperature; target temperature; and up to 10 extra temperature, dew-point, and feels-like channels |
| Humidity | Outdoor and indoor relative humidity; dew point; Vapor Pressure Deficit; and up to 10 extra humidity channels |
| Rain | Rain rate; 1-hour, rolling 24-hour, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, storm, and other provider-defined accumulations; storm start and end; and last rain time |
| Evapotranspiration and degree days | Evapotranspiration; short-reference and tall-reference evapotranspiration; and growing, heating, and cooling degree days |
| Lightning | Strike totals; last strike time and distance; closest strike; active intervals and days; peak interval and daily strike counts; and strike totals by distance band |
| Wind | Sustained wind speed; gust; wind and gust direction; direction variability; wind run; and wind or gust direction distributions |
| Pressure | Sea-level pressure, station pressure, pressure tendency, and 3-hour pressure change |
| Solar and UV | Solar irradiance and UV index |
| Air quality | PM1, PM2.5, and PM10; four additional PM2.5 channels; indoor particulate readings; AQI value, type, and description; and temperature, humidity, dew point, heat index, wet bulb, and CO2 reported by an air-quality sensor |
| Indoor environment | Indoor temperature, humidity, apparent temperature, feels-like temperature, dew point, heat index, wet bulb, Wet Bulb Globe Temperature, CO2, and noise; plus up to seven extra CO2 and noise channels |
| Soil and plants | Up to 16 soil-temperature, soil-moisture, and soil-salinity channels; four soil-tension channels; nine soil-permittivity channels; water potential; four leaf-temperature channels; eight leaf-wetness channels; and leaf-wetness duration |
| Ephemeris | Astronomical, nautical, and civil dawn and dusk; sunrise and sunset; moonrise and moonset; moon phase; and moon illumination |
| Other weather context | Forecast rule and forecast description when supplied by the source |
Presentation by view
Each view presents the part of the catalog suited to its purpose.
| View | Measurement coverage |
|---|---|
| Tempo real | Cartões selecionados para condições atuais comuns, além de cartões escalares atuais para métricas suportadas de conforto, interior, canais adicionais, qualidade do ar e humidade do solo |
| Histórico | Gráficos de métricas suportadas de temperatura e conforto, humidade, chuva, vento, relâmpagos, evapotranspiração, humidade foliar, humidade do solo, pressão, energia solar e UV, qualidade do ar, condições interiores e canais adicionais |
| Observations and observation details | The broadest inspection surfaces, including weather metrics, soil and plant channels, event times, derived values, and provider diagnostics stored with an observation or summary |
| Widgets | Exact numeric metrics from the selected station’s mirrored catalog, subject to the chosen preset and widget capacity |
| Map | A compact provider- and station-dependent subset suited to map markers and station selection |
Weather Fusion presents gateway, battery, signal, firmware, and uptime values in Device Health. These values support station diagnosis and remain separate from weather measurement families.
Availability rules
A metric appears when all required layers are available:
- The provider exposes the field through the configured account or local connection.
- The station or attached sensor supplies the source reading.
- The selected view supports that metric and presentation form.
- Stored observations or summaries cover the selected period when the view uses history.
Os cartões de humidade do solo requerem uma leitura atual compatível para o canal exato. Os gráficos históricos requerem leituras compatíveis armazenadas. O facto de uma estação comunicar Humidade do solo 2 não implica o suporte de Humidade do solo 1 nem de todos os outros canais. As percentagens e os centibares são suportados como unidades de origem separadas. Alguns intervalos históricos ou valores diários continuam indisponíveis quando faltam dados compatíveis armazenados.
Unit preferences change presentation while preserving stored values. See Real Time card reference, Historical chart reference, and Provider and sensor availability for surface-specific details.
When the station or connection service shows a measurement that is missing from Weather Fusion, follow Fix a missing measurement to collect the information needed for investigation.
