Have you ever wondered what the rainfall is and if you log your own records what other guys around you get?

This Idea came when I searched Playstore and found No hits, not one. This might be because no one on earth cares about amount of rainfall statistics, if that is the case then this thread can be regarded as web trash...

But I have an need for being able to log it on my phone and comparing stats with others  

The idea of the app is that you upload your data as rain falls and other users do the same, not only will it be convenient and quick to use android for this but if uploaded to the web, others can access regional data and check different locations rainfall stats(map view maybe).

And the best of all is that once a few people constantly upload information it will escalate into an self sustaining application requiring minimal maintenance and updates.

How hard can it be to develop such an app and what skills will be required?

Hope you can share your thoughts on this topic, if it sound like an epic fail, speak your mind...
