About This File

This is a Marionette Object that downloads weather data from the internet based on the address/location you enter into the OIP. You must have a valid internet connection to use this MO. There will be more weather analysis graphs to come!  Here is a video that shows how the Wind Rose works: Wind Rose Video.mp4


What's New in Version 5.0.0   See changelog

Released

Hello all, I have uploaded a new version of the wind rose that works in Vectorworks 2023 sp1 or later. I have removed the older version, as this tool did not work in recent versions of Vectorworks. Unfortunately, the new wind rose cannot be exported to prior versions because it has significant new functionality that was implemented in Vectorworks 2023.

I'm not getting this to work.  It says it requires a python download IIRC.  Upon saying yes to that, I get "module geopy can not be installed".  It used to work great in 2017...

@jeff prince are you using the latest wind rose file posted here? Also, are you using the latest build of 2019? There were problems with geopy not being installed in 2018 I believe, but it should work in the current version of the software.

I updated the geopy library download link - perhaps this new version will work for you.

@sbarrett Thanks!

Launched the new file, prompted to update Geopy, approved the requisite dialog boxes.

Relaunched VW

Works now 🙂

Just loaded on VW2021 - (also the temp and sun diagrams).

 

Works great - thanks for these!

 

 

One question, the date/year seems to max out at 2019.

 

Any way to update this for the 2020s?

I've been testing this on VW 2023, and it's working great. A little slow, but likely due to my older machine.   @sbarrett Thanks for sharing these.

 

EDIT: Deleted feature request.  Operator error.
