Find Duplicates

Find potential duplicate stations in your local repository. Two stations are reported as potential duplicates if they share an identifier (e.g. WMO or ICAO ID) or are located close to each other and have similar names.

Usage

meteo station duplicates [OPTIONS]

Examples

meteo station duplicates                      # Check the whole directory
meteo station duplicates --country DE         # Only check stations in Germany
meteo station duplicates --id 10637           # Find duplicates of a specific station
meteo station duplicates --radius 500         # Only match stations within 500 m
meteo station duplicates --format json        # JSON output

Output

Each row represents a pair of stations along with their distance and the reasons why they were matched:

station_a  station_b  distance  reasons
10637      0A1B2      120       wmo, name
10635      D4X9K      340       location, name

Review each pair carefully. If two records describe the same station, merge the relevant information into one using edit and remove the other one using delete.

Options

Option	Short	Description
--id		Only report duplicates of the given station (repeatable)
