China (Chinese) locations
Last modified: 2014-12-21 18:16:56 UTC
This is the bug thread for all Chinese locations (as ordered in wiki). I will post my own location request in the following post.
Request for adding Jinan, Shandong, China: - Jinan is the provincial capital of Shandong province, therefore it is a major city. - ICAO code: ZSTN - Geographical coordinates: 36°38′00″N 117°01′00″E - Matching line in nsd_cccc.txt: ZSTN;54;823;Jinan;;China;2;36-41N;116-59E;36-41N;116-59E;58;58; - Alternative name in Chinese: 济南 I don't know if this is the right way for adding request, but the city presents in nsd_cccc.txt along with Qingdao (the second largest city in Shandong province) while absent in Locations.xml.in (from git repository).
Qindao is already in the database, afaik. I added Jinan. Thanks for all the details. This problem has been fixed in our software repository. The fix will go into the next software release. Thank you for your bug report.
Hello, dear developer. When tested in the latest version of Gnome-Weather, the weather report for Jinan city could not be retrieved. I looked up in flightaware.com, and the correct 4-character code for Jinan Yaoqiang AP should be "ZSJN" not "ZSTN" (in nsd_cccc.txt it's ZSTN for unknown reason). http://flightaware.com/resources/airport/ZSJN I don't know which one is to be trusted, but if we fill in ZSTN in weather.xml, the weather report cannot be loaded (while Qingdao's ZSQD works fine).
Ok, I fixed the ICAO code of Jinan, the correct entry is in libgweather 3.14.2 released today.
