With this excellent travel tool with Webcams and Maps you can find a point of interest or set d/a point on the drive navigator apps. The webcams are retrieved through webcams.travel. It is a service designed to offer users the ability to view world webcams of tourist places. The weather data are retrieved through open weathermap.org.

In this way, you can discover a webcam and then see the weather data from the nearest station. Or you can find a weather station (your position or city), and then see the nearby webcams.
