Weather Radar

This skill provides a way to generate a composite animated GIF showing current and historical weather radar data overlaid on a real geographic base map (OpenStreetMap). It fetches real-time radar layers from RainViewer.

How to Use

When the user asks for a weather radar map or animated cloud GIF for a location, run the Python script scripts/generate_radar.py to create the animation. It outputs a composite 3x3 tile grid (768x768 pixels).

Executing the script

First, look up the latitude and longitude of the requested city or use the provided coordinates. If no city is specified, default to the user's known location or a sensible default.

# Example for Beijing
python scripts/generate_radar.py --lat 39.9042 --lon 116.4074 --zoom 7 --out /home/ubuntu/.openclaw/workspace/radar_map.gif
