OpenWeatherMap

This sample illustrates the communication with an HTTPS/REST API. HTTPS GET requests are sent to obtain weather data from the OpenWeatherMap REST API. The response of the web service containing the data is in a JSON format.

To send requests to the OpenWeatherMap REST API, the user must create an account for OpenWeatherMap to receive an application ID. In combination with a location identifier (e.g. latitude/longitude, city ID, city name), the application ID can be used to query weather data.

API documentation for various use cases (16-day forecast, current data etc.) can be found here: https://openweathermap.org/api.
