Inspiration
Driving safety can be a major issue especially when weather conditions change over a long drive. This program gives information to a person preparing to take a long drive so they can have a safe trip and prepare.
What it does
User inputs a starting location and destination, and program returns weather and temperature description for three-hour intervals along the route.
How we built it
Used Google Maps API and OpenWeather API in Java.
Challenges we ran into
Figuring out how to use APIs. Calculating the midpoints between two different coordinates given through Google Maps to get better location estimates.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Using two APIs to create a comprehensive, easy-to-use program that is also beneficial in the real world.
What we learned
How to use APIs.
