Digital weather station with Data storage


Description:
Throughout time we"ve been fascinated by the weather - studying signs of change and making and acting on predictions. Today we can link modern instruments to computers to reduce human error and automate record keeping. Aim of the project is to monitor weather conditions, including temperature, atmospheric humidity, and solar light intensity. Local weather measurements are extremely important to a wide range of professions, from horticulturists to fire fighters. It provides around-the-clock monitoring of various types of applications. For example, it can be used in a greenhouse to manage climate control and help promote favorable growing conditions. In solar power applications, it can verify the performance of photovoltaic (PV) array systems by monitoring solar radiation, DC power, and other parameters. On green roofs, it can help researchers understand performance by tracking air temperature, turf temperature, soil moisture, and rainfall.

Description in detail:
This project is a fine combination of analog and digital electronics. The project consists of parameters monitoring, parameter storage. PC interface is one of the main features of the project in which various data like value of parameters, date and time are sent to the PC. We have used Microcontroller as a main component of the project. Now a Microcontroller has become a main component of many of the electronic circuits. Also Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and EEPROM are used on major basis for the display and storage purpose. This project consists of two basic modules. First is "Data monitoring" & other is "Data Storage" A display unit will show the value of parameters. This will help for the person to know the values, for this purpose we are going to use various sensors, which will be connected to ADC. The other module is named as parameter storage. It can be used to store the parameter values in the memory. We are going to use EEPROM memory IC. These values can later be seen using a keypad provided on the front panel. This system is useful because many times it"s difficult to measure the parameter values manually and also this module is more accurate than the domestic system.

Applications:
This electronic circuit is mainly used in "Weather stations"
This project can also be used for the following application
1) To calculate and store the temperature and humidity of a boiler in the industry.
2) To store flow of the water flowing from the dam or a canal
3) To monitor / display the level of the liquid inside the container
4) Also this system communicates with a PC and sends various data like level of humidity, liquid flow, and temperature of water.

Future Development:
1) We can monitor and store more parameters like Humidity, PH of soil, pressure, by replacing the level sensing module by temperature sensor or respective sensor.
2) We can send this data to a remote location using mobile or internet
3) We can draw graphs of variations in these parameters using computer

Question and answers about this project:

Question: How much time will it take to reach project by courier?
Answer: Project PCB is ready, so it will take 2 days to complete the proejct. And then 2 to 3 days to courier the project.

Question: I am from Belgaum. I need Wind Speed data logging along with the other 3 as mentioned.
Answer: Wind speed is not available immediately, but it can be done using IR sensor or optical sensors.
