Crossover

What it does

Why would you want to do track actionable weather data? Consider that Air conditioners use an extraordinary amount of energy. According to an article in The Economist (https://www.economist.com/leaders/2018/08/25/how-to-make-air-conditioning-more-sustainable) making air conditioners more energy efficient could reduce carbon emissions by 180 billion tons by the year 2050. Lowering the use of air conditioners can go a long way to helping climate change (and lowering your power bill). How can you run your air conditioner less? simple: Open the windows in your home whenever possible. You can use Crossover to send you notifications about when the humidity and temperature are comfortable for opening the windows in your house.
Crossover strives to give users actionable weather data in an easy-to-consume format for the weather that they care about the most. Gemini is used to collect the data from the user needed to get the customized weather forecast (such as zip code what weather the user wants to know about). Once the user goes through the initial set up process, they will recieve a notification that tells them when to expect the dewpoint or the temperature in their area to "Crossover" their target temperature over the next several days. Additionally, to expidite the development of the project, we integrated with Pushover as the only method of getting notified. You will need to sign up for a free pushover account to get the needed User API key and Pushover API Keys.
