Midge forecast goes Twitter

23/05/2009

This weekend sees the opening of the 2009 Midge Forecast season, and an update to the midgeforecast.co.uk website. The forecast takes a cluster of weather, historical midge data, and daily midge catch data to produce a forecast of Scottish Midge activity for the coming week.

Google Maps API continues to be the platform for the presentation of the forecast data. In addition the system feeds a number of newspaper and other media with live data to publish.

Primarily delivered through the web, this year sees the SMS service from last year replaced with a Twitter service. Just follow @midgeforecast to receive a daily summary of midge activity from the beginning of June.
