Where we live, work, study and travel, the weather significantly affect our life, if there is device or solution that can help us to predict future environment change in order to better arrange our schedule, give us alert and notification for any environmental change

What it does

Our solution is to provide real time weather information to public

How we built it

We do it as an mobile app with linking data with Hong Kong Observatory

Challenges we ran into

Not much free open weather and transport data from government and private institution

Accomplishments that we're proud of
