This is a test bed for an idea of a quickly deployable website that could be housed on a local computer instead of on a server. It will still utilize information that would require access to the internet, in this current format, data from a Web Map Service (WMS) server.

This example utilizes Leaflet, the Leaflet-Plugin Time Dimension, as well as data from Environment Canada (EC) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) via UCAR.

Please Note as of the middle of 2018, the Environment Canada WMS server has changed how it responds to data requests and due to that a lot of the features I was working with initially no longer work in their current form such as the Time Dimension parts used to get and display a model run worth of data and displaying it. It is my hope that I will be able to find a way around that but at the moment I do not have as much free time to investigate how to do that. If you have any ideas please let me know!

Currently under development for a new release where I'll be moving from Leaflet to OpenLayers implementation for the weather data retrieval and creating a static offshoot site to host my resume, other work, blog utilizing Jekyll. Hoping to have the addition and transition to OpenLayers done by the end of January 2022.
