Historical Data

Post by ramsded »

From my observation of Cumulus software, I would like to start using this as it appears to be much more comprehensive than Weatherlink which I currently use. My only reservation to doing this is I have 20 years of historical data which I would understandably like to include. I have seen 1 post on this subject which asks whether anyone has been able to do this and would appreciate any guidance if anyone has, or, any info as to what files Cumulus stores in the data folder to work and what format these files needs to be in ie CSV.

Thanks

I can't help regarding the conversion, but the formats of the data files are in the Cumulus help, and the wiki. If you can create the 'monthly' log files, Cumulus can create everything else from those.

I should probably add that Cumulus won't work with data from before the year 2000.
