雅虎天气 API 为某些美国纬度/经度位置提供错误

Question

我正在创建有关公园的页面。对于每个公园，都有一个纬度/经度，对于大多数公园，我可以使用 Yahoo 天气 API

但由于某种原因，某些页面会返回如下错误：

无效输入 /forecastrss?w=2347563

在我这样调用 Yahoo 天气 API 之后：

http://www.geomojo.org/cgi-bin/reversegeocoder.cgi?long=-121.433098&lat=40.509312

知道如何解决这些错误吗？

这是我的代码：

$url = 'http://www.geomojo.org/cgi-bin/reversegeocoder.cgi?long='.$lng.'&lat='.$lat;


// Calls the url to get the zip code and woeid
$webpage = file_get_contents($url);
//echo $webpage;
try
{
     $xml = new SimpleXMLElement($url, 0, true);

     // Gets the woeid to look up the weather in that specific place dynamically.
     $woeid= $xml->woeid; // Displays "Text"
     $zip =  $xml->name; // Displays "Text"

    // URL to send to yahoo weather to get weather RSS
        $yahoo_url = 'http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w='.$woeid;

    $xml = file_get_contents($yahoo_url);
    $yahoo_response = new SimpleXMLElement($xml , 0, false);

    $weather_description = $yahoo_response->channel->item->description;

    $splitdata = explode('<a', $weather_description);
    echo '<p>'.$splitdata[0].'</p>';
}
catch  (Exception $e)
{
    echo 'Caught exception: ',  $e->getMessage(), "\n";
}

这是一个不起作用的示例的 url。查看左侧的天气部分：

Answer 1

如果您同时通过 Yahoo 进行 lat/long->woeid 和天气呼叫，您可能会获得更好的结果。您可以使用YQL 为您拨打这两个电话。

例如，使用上面的 lat/long 对，这是一个 YQL 查询，它首先将 lat/long 对转换为 woeid，然后使用它来获取预测：

select * from weather.woeid where w in (select woeid from geo.placefinder where text="-121.433098, 40.509312" and gflags="R")

在 YQL 控制台中尝试时，结果如下：

Answer 2

此地理编码调用

http://www.geomojo.org/cgi-bin/reversegeocoder.cgi?long=-121.433098&lat=40.509312

只返回一个州，加利福尼亚。

如果我不得不做出一个疯狂的猜测，我会说天气 API 需要一个比这更具体的位置。这可能是因为有些公园太偏远（或最近的城镇太小），以至于地理编码器无法根据您经过的坐标找到城市。
