Adding 3rd party Weather Layer

Hey, I'm looking to add a custom feature layer (weather layer).

I've got the documentation which basically saying to call the URL and get the relevant data:

"http://maps.customweather.com/cw_tiles/5-5imZ7MogxLQSd-NFMPy5aPfZAEBj3axcJeJeBh38PtBSPb_cgTv hRqEAQhlNSI/synoptic_temp/"+Tile2Quad(a.x,a.y,b)+".png";

However as you can see, i need to pass some arguments to the url, which are the extent basically.

This code example is for Google maps.

here is the Tile2Quad function:

The question is, how can i convert this code to esri, get the Geometry, and add this weather layer to my application.

Thanks

I haven't tested this, but it seems to me you could use a WebTiledLayer and override the getTileURL function like so:

Note that the urlTemplate value in the constructor is bogus, but that's ok because it will never be used.
