General access and AEMET OpenData API. Both of them provide access to the same data catalogue and they offer downloading data in reusable formats.
General access:
This is a chart access for the general public. It aims to enable user to get access to data in a user-friendly way. Interaction with data is punctual, it's made through a human user-friendly interface, directed step by step and by choosing options.
AEMET OpenData API:

This make possible that AEMET data can be included by re-users of information in their own information systems.
