The `zamg` platform uses meteorological details published by the Austrian weather service
[Zentralanstalt für Meteorologie und Geodynamik (ZAMG)](https://www.zamg.ac.at).

Only observations for capital cities are publically available.  You can check the
list of stations in [CSV format](http://www.zamg.ac.at/ogd).

To add ZAMG to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: zamg
    station_id: 11035
    monitored_conditions:
      - temperature
      - humidity
```

Configuration variables:

- **station_id** (*Optional*): The ID number for a supported ZAMG station.
- **name** (*Optional*): Additional name for the sensors. Defaults to platform name.
- **monitored_conditions** array (*Required*): Conditions to display in the frontend.
  - **pressure**: Pressure at station level
  - **pressure_sealevel**: Pressure at sea Level
  - **humidity**: Humidity
  - **wind_speed**: Wind speed
  - **wind_bearing**: Wind bearing
  - **wind_max_speed**: Top wind speed
  - **wind_max_bearing**: Top wind bearing
  - **sun_last_hour**: Sun last hour percentage
  - **temperature**: Temperature
  - **precipitation**: Precipitation
  - **dewpoint**: Dew point

<p class='note'>
This sensor is an alternative to the [`zamg`](/components/weather.zamg/) weather platform.
The weather platform is easier to configure but less customisable.
