Indeed, their lack of openness is frustrating. I recently wrote[1] about the importance of open source code, and open data too, specifically in terms of crowdsourcing projects for scientific advancement. It'd be great if more of these projects were open, especially the ones with "open" in their name.
WeatherSignal is completely open for non-commercial use, and our data is actually being used by many of the same researchers as PressureNet!
And we're working on making our data more open - with our new resources we'll have more time to work on improve the data we make available via both our website and API.
Wow, congrats! I interviewed for a job at OpenSignal, but unfortunately didn't qualify. Really great team though, and so much potential with their datasets. Hoping to see more from them.
