Radar Images on Google Maps API [closed]

Question

I have been struggling to find a solution for this after numerous searches. I am looking for a web service or API or something that will allow me to fetch smoothed NEXRAD (Weather Radar) data for the United States and display it on a Google Map. I have only been able to find non-commercial or pure (not smoothed) data. The project I am working on is requiring a radar image that is comparable to what you would see through WeatherBug.

Has anyone had any experience with data like this or know any APIs that are avaliable?

I cannot even find a program that can process the raw data from the National Weather Service into smoothed radar images that I could slice up and use in a Google Maps overlay...

Answer 1

Give this a shot. It is what I am using and it works great.

Here is the link to the page where the data is coming from and they offer several other products as well.

tileNEX = new google.maps.ImageMapType({
    getTileUrl: function(tile, zoom) {
        return "http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/cache/tile.py/1.0.0/nexrad-n0q-900913/" + zoom + "/" + tile.x + "/" + tile.y +".png?"+ (new Date()).getTime();
    },
    tileSize: new google.maps.Size(256, 256),
    opacity:0.50,
    name : 'NEXRAD',
    isPng: true
});
