Abstract

Stored data and records of weather parameter like temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, wind speed measured remotely by using appropriate sensors is important in environmental, weather monitoring and many industrial processes. A device for weather monitoring through measuring, processing and recording is developed to monitor and display the atmospheric temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, solar radiation and wind speed. The aim is to design and implement mobile weather monitoring system that can be remotely used. The materials that were used including: Anemometer (wind speed sensor), DHT11 (temperature and relative humidity sensor), MPX5100AP (pressure sensor), LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) for light intensity 16x2 LCD (Liquid Cristal Display), a microcontroller, and a Memory Card (MMC). At the end, a weather monitoring system was implemented and it was used to monitor five weather parameters and store in the memory Card.

Highlights

  • Weather Monitoring System (WMS) is a device help to keep track of weather parameters

  • The purpose of this paper was to present produce a simple and cost effective weather station considering the importance of the availability of weather related data the designed system can Measure five weather parameters namely; atmospheric temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, solar radiation and atmospheric pressure

  • It can log in the data for a prescribed period of time

Summary

Introduction

Weather Monitoring System (WMS) is a device help to keep track of weather parameters. Livestock are dependent upon weather for their comfort and food supplies. The connections among weather, climate, and food production have long been recognized and studied. Over the last several decades, it has become increasingly clear that human activities such as fossil- fuel combustion and deforestation are changing the Earth’s climate (IPCC 2013). It is likewise clear that these changes have affected and will continue to affect human society, natural ecosystems, and managed ecosystems (IPCC 2013). An extensive body of evidence shows that climate change will continue to have direct and indirect effects on food production throughout the century [2]
