Want to make an Australian METAR Map yourself? Well here are some of the things that can make that possible!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

METAR Computer:<\/p>\n

Australian METAR Maps use a Raspberry Pi to connect to the internet to download the METARs and also controls the LED’s<\/p>\n

It will come with a Raspberry Pi computer, Micro SD Card with preloaded software, a custom made PCB and a 3D printed case. Everything you need to control your METAR map<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

LED Lights:<\/p>\n

Strings of LED lights to attach to your METAR map.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Map Size:<\/p>\n

Choose from either a Full Size Australian METAR Map (143cm x 94cm) or the smaller East Coast Australian Map<\/a> (67cm x 94cm) in any of the styles above.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I am happy to provide any advice for someone who wants to have a go at creating their own METAR map. I know I had fun doing it so sharing that is my pleasure!<\/p>\n

I’ve even written up an in-depth guide on how to make your own METAR map on my DIY page<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
