We present a cloud-based microservice enabling individual users to have access to local air pressure measurements and a proof-of-concept web application providing shot-term weather forecasts based only on local crowdsensed data. Our microservice has been developed using state-of-the-art web technologies and cutting-edge technologies related to cloud computing. Apart from its individual interest and potential usefulness, our microservice and proof-of-concept web application show how modern cloud-based technologies and tools can be nicely combined to improve the community daily routine and wellbeing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
