EU weather alerts

[korniza]

There is an app on samsung mobiles that is called Geo news. it gets alerts for extreme weather or earthquakes on mobile device and can send SMS to configured contacts.
I tried to get it fixed for domoticz. I found the following site that provides for EU weather warnings. The only problem is that I am not a coder.
SO if someone try to build it please take a look on http://www.meteoalarm.eu/ .
I suppose most people here are from EU countries.

If someone also have found a way to get earthquake status according to location, can also share it ?
I like the idea to get "Geo News" and a button that can send notifications "I am OK" or "Please call help"

Interesting site.
At a quick glance I can't see any form of output.
I have added my local area's RSS feed to my reader.

OK! the previous was a light search! Now the real thing!!!!!

How we can use rss feeds and search them using lua?!??!
On the following feed there are geopoints that are GLOBAL so we can build a nice addon for domoticz.

Code: Select all

<geo:Point>
<geo:lat>-42.2956</geo:lat>
<geo:long>173.7102</geo:long>

Someone could try a Lua XML reader to see if these feeds can be read.
Perhaps a Python or similar script already exists for RSS and could push data to Domoticz

I thought so. But I like something more combined with domoticz. I like to get the gps coordinates from domoticz and compare them with the feed.

suppose https://github.com/slact/lua-feedparser is a good start
