Low Cost IoT Enabled Weather Station









Abstract

The recent trends in the variations of climatic conditions are drastic throughout the world and furthermore its growing unpredictability is a major concern. The existing solutions are highly global and are inaccessible to the common man. The weather conditions applicable to a city may not be as such for a farmer of small rural region or a worker of a small town. Hence, humidity and temperature measurement plays an important role in different fields like Agriculture, Science, Engineering and Technology. The proposed work provides an optimal solution for monitoring the weather conditions at extremely local level with low cost, compact Internet of Things (IoT) based system. In this paper the design of the system is presented with the use of Node MCU for realizing the low cost solution. This low cost weather station is a product equipped with instruments and sensors for measuring the atmospheric conditions like temperature, humidity, wing speed, wind direction for the purpose of making weather forecasts. With IoT enabling, weather station is able to upload, without any human intervention, the measured atmospheric parameters i.e. temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction to the IoT cloud. From the cloud user can access all the atmospheric parameters being measured through weather station from any location across the world from any connected device - laptop or mobile phone. The “Low cost Compact IoT enabled Weather Station” need not to be physically visited to read out the measured atmospheric parameters and thus does not have any display which also makes it power efficient running at only 80mA to 90mA.
