Inconsistent rain data from API

Post by emontolivo »

I have a Netatmo weather station with rain gauge and anemometer. I am collecting my data from the Netatmo server by using the API but I am having the following issues:
1) rain data for the period 23:50-00:00 are not summed-up to the cumulative rain amount of the day and are simply dropped. The query for that period reports NULL for the rain_24 parameter (and some others) making it impossible to collect meaningful data at day level.
2) The same issue exists for the temperature. In case the min or max temperature is reached between 23:50 and 00:00, it is not reported.
3) rain data for the period 00:00-00:10 are in most cases ignored as well (but not always)
4) rain data reported for each 10-minute observation period are often wrong (sometime a value is missed, sometime it is duplicated). Consequently the sum of this values is not equal to the cumulative rain for the day, as it should be.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to fix the problem?
Thanks
Emilio
