Web Syndication

Syndication Format

PTCC is currently using Atom 1.0 as the web syndication format.

About Atom

Atom is an XML-based document format that describes lists of related information known as "feeds". Feeds are composed of a number of items, known as "entries", each with an extensible set of attached metadata. For example, each entry has a title.

The primary use case that Atom addresses is the syndication of Web content such as weblogs and news headlines to Web sites as well as directly to user agents.

Selectable Feed

PTCC currently provides a feed which contains all contents, including but not limited to the tropical cyclone advisories, watches or alerts. You will be notified after you have subscribed to this feed when a new report, watch or alert is released.
