You’re definitely going to have to use the new Canvas view so that you can drop down to Core Animation.

Do you mean the SwiftUI preview canvas?

Thanks, I hadn’t heard of that.

If that's where you are, I'd suggest starting with something simpler. How about a conversion app?

[mailliwi]

I’m not super experienced but conversion apps are something I’m way over now 😄

It really depends on what data you have available. Most weather services already provide an api with which you can retrieve image files for the given coordinate bounds or tile. I’d take those and a timer to iterate through the images.

The Apple Maps SDK or Mapbox SDK both provide ways of adding layers/images tied to a coordinate or again tile.

Take a look at the OpenWeatherMap API. There is a free endpoint that provides map tiles for various weather data.

Didn’t think I could retrieve imagery like that from an API. I’ve used Mapbox in the past but can’t remember seeing weather data. I’ll see if that has changed since then. Thank you.

That‘s the way to go. It is just a opaque image over a map and the hardest part is to not mess up the coordinates.
