How wxtx.info uses your coordinates
Some reports require your location to work. These include weather reports we generate from the open-meteo.com service, and reverse geocoding using the #WHERE report. We get the location from the message your device sends to wxtx.info
Other reports do not need your location, and don't use it, even though your device sends your location anyway. These include government agency reports like the METAREA reports, and other reports based on text or partial text files.
If you have more use cases for reports requiring your location, please share them with us.
