Weather Monitoring System Using Java with Source Code by

using Java Swing (GUI)

Language & Interface:

The Weather Monitoring System is developed using Java programming language, which features a
graphical user interface (GUI) created with Java Swing. The application is designed to manage and
display weather-related data, providing an interactive interface for users to perform data manipulation
(view, add, update) on weather.

Here is the simple illustrated Weather Monitoring System:

Introduction:

The Weather Monitoring System is a comprehensive application written in Java to track and display
meteorological data. This project helps users in collecting, storing and retrieving temperature, humidity,
etc. This enables easier handling of such information as users interact with it more naturally via this
application’s platform built on top of java swing.

In conclusion what we have tried to achieve in this project was a centralized platform which simplifies
how meteorological data gets monitored.

Required Modules & Packages:

To run this system we need several modules and packages such as

1. Java Swing - For creating graphical user interface of the application.


2. JDBC - To connect the application to the database where weather data is stored.
3. SQLite - A Database engine that is used to store and manage weather records efficiently.

To install these packages, make sure your Java Development environment is set up with
the necessary dependencies.

How to Run the Code:

To get the above system up and running, follow these steps:


1. Clone the repository: first clone the project repository from GitHub using the command:
git clone [repository link]

2. Navigate to the project directory: after cloning, navigate to the directory where the project files
are located.
3. Set up the environment: Make sure your Java environment is set up with the necessary
dependencies and with packages required. Add the SQLite JDBC jar file to your project’s class
path.
4. Compile and run the project: use your preferred IDE OR command prompt to compile and run
the java file
javac main.java
java main

Code Explanation:

WeatherAppGUI Class
This class sets up the entire GUI for the weather monitoring system and handles the interaction between user
inputs and the displayed weather data.

main() Method
The main method initializes the application by invoking the GUI and making the application visible.

initialize() Method
This method sets up the initial layout and components of the GUI, such as text fields, labels, and buttons.

cityTextField
A JTextField component that allows the user to input the city name for which the weather data is to be fetched.

cityLabel
A JLabel that displays the prompt 'Enter City' next to the input field.

btnGetWeather
A JButton component that triggers the weather data retrieval when clicked.

fetchWeatherData() Method
This method retrieves weather data from an external API based on the city name provided by the user, and
updates the GUI with the fetched data.

apiUrl Variable
Constructs the URL for the API request using the provided city name and a predefined API key.

HttpURLConnection
Opens a connection to the weather API endpoint and sends a GET request to fetch the weather data.

JsonParser
Parses the JSON response received from the weather API.
cityLabel (update)
Displays the city and country name retrieved from the weather data.

dateLabel
Displays the current local date and time for the city.

temperatureLabel
Displays the current temperature in Celsius for the city.

conditionLabel
Displays the weather condition (e.g., 'Cloudy', 'Sunny') for the city.

Output:

The Weather Monitoring System is visualized through its GUI, where users can see the data of weather
displayed in an organized manner. The design and functionality are achieved through effective use of
java components and event handling which makes the system more useful in weather monitoring.
