pressurenet: Crowd Sourced pressure data

Glen Newton
..actually, it is the "Wisdom of the Crowd's cell phones" that drives
this: a number of the newer smartphones have built-in digital
barometers, & you can download an app that collects them:
 - http://www.cumulonimbus.ca/the-galaxy-s4-has-a-barometer/
 - View data: http://pressurenet.cumulonimbus.ca/

From what I can tell on the site, the app is open source, but I can't
see where you can download the data.:
"...we intend to build an API that lets anyone pull data from the
archive" - http://pressurenet.cumulonimbus.ca/ "About"

"If you are a researcher at an educational institution or a
meteorological organization and are interested in accessing our live
data stream, please contact us. We are interested in sharing our live
atmospheric pressure data, especially to those who are looking to
improve weather forecasting." - http://pressurenet.cumulonimbus.ca/
