Dear Aniket

While I don't believe we would rule out creating a new openstreetmap 
based map/service as part of GSOC from scratch, typically these are 
conceived as separate projects and then get support later on when they 
have proven themselves. With other words supporting this through GSOC 
would require you to convince us that this is a long term viable project 
that at least you are willing to support over a longer period of time 
and would have substantial benefits for OpenStreetMap as a whole.

But besides that, integrating weather data in to a project would require 
an open source of such data, what are your thoughts on that? How would 
source it and integrate it in to your project?

Kind regards

Simon
