Wireless Data Logging of A Weather Station On GUI: Project Advisor MR - Rauf Ali

This project involves designing a wireless weather station to log and monitor environmental data. The weather station will use sensors to capture temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and rainfall. An Atmega16 microcontroller will read the sensor values and transmit the data wirelessly via XBee modules to a PC. The PC will display the readings on a GUI created in LabVIEW. Farmers will benefit from real-time monitoring of weather conditions inside polyhouse farms. The weather station aims to gather accurate environmental data to help determine optimal conditions for crop growth.

AIMS
O To capture the data wirelessly by sensors
O Logging the data and analyzing it.
O To gather the current weather readings

that can be seen from indoors at any time.


O record wind speed over time to determine
true wind power
O Monitoring and calculations of remote
temperature and relative humidity
O Rain measurements
O Calculation of wind direction

Objective
Control and monitoring of
environmental parameters inside a
polyhouse farm, so as to ensure
continuous maintenance of favorable
crop atmosphere.

What is weather station?


A facility or location where meteorological
data are gathered, recorded, and released.

What is data logging?


To log and store values. It is commonly
used in scientific experiments and in
monitoring systems where there is the need
to collect information faster than a human
can possibly collect the information and in
cases where accuracy is essential.

Fast Response time
Low power design
Best value under temperature range 0 to

Near linear voltage output vs %RH

Anemometer:
The
cup-type
anemometer measures
wind speed by closing a
contact
as a magnet moves
past a switch. A wind
speed of
2.4 km/h
causes the switch to
close once per second.
WIND VANE , ANEMOMETER & RAIN GUAGE

Rain Guage:
The rain gauge is a

Wind Vane
It has eight switches, each connected to a different resistor.
The vanes magnet may close two switches at once, allowing
up to 16 different positions to be indicated. An external
resistor can be used to form a voltage divider, producing a
voltage output that can be measured with an analog to
digital converter

Advantages
Many farmers rely on weather stations to provide
them with accurate weather information.
From family owned farms and vineyards to the
agricultural industry at large, being able to take
accurate and reliable environmental measurements
is a must as their livelihood depends on having
precise and up-to-date weather information around
the clock.
Many other industries and businesses such as
construction companies, utilities and more depend
on knowing current and future weather conditions
and find weather stations to be indispensable in
their line of work.
