Hi and thanks for feedback ! Yes, I know the temis.nl website. I tried to compare history with my measurements: for example, I checked the maps of last summer: http://www.temis.nl/uvradiation/SCIA/uvief.php?Year=2016&Month=08&Day=12 On the world map, you can see that Europe (as well as USA) is in the green area for august, mean an index around 8 (not 15-16!)
Also my sensor currently says "3" while temis forecast is "1". But my question regarding Weewx is more related to the source information used to say the binary data is used as it is. I was not able to find this information in the different ressources regarding oregon protocol. I was also not able to find a clear information of what oregon define as UV index (I hope it's a standard definition but ...?) the documentation does not give any tolerances or range or whatever. I have a WMR86 console (not connected), may I should confirm with it that the displayed value is similar to weewx data or not... But I am at work during daytime, to be checked later! Best regards, Frederic.
