Getting Your Location Information - leonidasIIV/MinimalWeather GitHub Wiki

Latitude and Longitude allow you to specify a location on the globe. These gadgets use this information to perform the weather data lookups with OpenWeatherMap.com.

Finding you Latitude and Longitude

To locate the proper latitude and longitude values from OpenWeatherMaps.com for your desired location, you must visit OpenWeatherMap.com's find page. https://openweathermap.org/find

Once you are at this page, Type in your city and county code separated by a comma and press the search button. If OpenWeatherMap.com has data for the specified location the search results will present the location and a set of "Geo coords".

The first number in your geo coords is your latitude and the second number is your longitude.

Configuring the MinimalWeather Gadets

The MinimalWeather gadets use the latitude and longitude values globally. To configure the latitude and longigude, load the GlobalSettings gadget.
