Abstract
In this poster, we inspect common weather applications developed for Android Wear OS Smartwatches. Our goal is to learn (1) which type of weather data is commonly depicted in weather applications, (2) how this data is represented, and (3) how smartwatch wearers can interact with these applications. Based on this survey, we plan to develop glanceable weather visualizations that contain appropriate interactions. The current state of weather applications depicts a large number (15) of different weather data types; however, few use visual representations like bar charts (1), radial bar charts (2), or maps (4).
