Dew Point Calculation

I am trying to produce or calculate the Dew Point in Celsius of data in two separate indexes.

I believe the offcial Dew point formula is Td = T - ((100 - RH)/5.)

I want to basically use this formula to produce Dew point using relative humidity on one index with temperature on another index

Assuming that the measurement times at the two indexes are the same,

index=relative_humidity_index OR index=temperature_index
|stats avg(relative_humidity) as relative_humidity avg(temperature) as temperature by _time
|eval dew_point=temprature-((100-relative_humidity)/5.0)

That nearly worked. Thanks 🙂

(index="index1" device=* customer_id=*) OR (index="weather") | stats avg(hum) as relative_humidity avg(temp) as temperature by customer_id | eval dew_point=temperature-((100-relative_humidity)/5.0)

However something which ive noticed which could be any issue is that the both indexes have a temperature but on one index its temperature(weather index) and on the other its temp(index 1). When i change it to temperature it doesnt seem to produce/include the values from the "weather" index.

I basically want the temperature from the weather index vs humidity of the index1

Easily handled.

(index="index1" device= customer_id=) OR (index="weather") 
| eval temperature=coalesce(temperature, temp)
| stats avg(hum) as relative_humidity avg(temp) as temperature by customer_id 
| eval dew_point=temperature-((100-relative_humidity)/5.0)
