Introduction

 The internet of things helps to control and monitor different devices wirelessly
over the internet. The internet acts as A medium for communication between all
the connected devices. 
 For the efficient monitoring of weather and other changes in the environment, a
weather reporting system using IoT is quite necessary. But the weather reporting
system should be A smart system.
 The conventional weather reporting system uses various instruments like
thermometers, barometers, rain gauge etc. These instruments use analog
technology and its data is later stored in A database physically.
LITERATURE REVIEW

In today’s world many pollution monitoring systems are designed by different
environmental parameters. Existing system model is presented IOT based weather
monitoring and reporting system where you can collect, process, analyze, and present
your measured data on web server.
Wireless sensor network management model consists of end device, router, gateway
node and management monitoring center. End device is responsible for collecting
wireless sensor network data, and sending them to parent node, then data are sent to
gateway node from parent node directly or by router.
After receiving the data from wireless sensor network, gateway node extracts data
after analyzing and packaging them into ethernet format data, sends them to the
server.
Less formally, any device that runs server software could be considered a server as
well. Servers are used to manage network resources.
The services or information provided through the internet that are connected
through lan and made available for users via smart phones, web browser or other
web browser devices to make the system more intelligent, adaptable and efficient.
Objective
 The main objective of this project is to originate electronic device or network
that can capture and restore temperature and humidity and after that send
data to the cloud or website for its analysis.
 Here we can use the Arduino uno as a microcontroller for the simple brain of
the system. When we use the Arduino as a microcontroller, we need a wi-fi
module to establish internet connection. And the DHT sensor, which (digital
humidity sensor) can detect differences in temperature, humidity and
humidity at a certain location, must be integrated into the system. The
sensor continuously monitors temperature changes and sends data to the
microcontroller. The microcontroller transfer the data for its storage and
visualization to cloud.
 We can also use iot platforms such as think speak IoT to collect data into the
cloud for analysis. This system can then be customized to create good
animations such as tweets or phone calls, or turn on a device when the
temperature/humidity or other parameters are below a certain threshold.
Existing Model
 The existing monitoring systems normally use weather stations that use various kind
of instruments such as thermometers, barometers, wind vanes, gauge etc. to
measure weather and climate changes. Most of these used instruments use simple
analog technology which is later physically recorded and stored in a data base. This
information is later forward to news reporting stations and various stations where
the weather report is given.
 Existing weather monitoring systems that are used generally consist of
unconventional and heavy machinery that consists of number of moving parts that
require constant maintenance and need to be monitored and changed frequently.
 Power requirements are one of many major constraints as these instruments are
generally sited far from main power supply. This made instruments costly.
 Data collected by the instruments needs to be manually transferred from the system
to a Laptop or computer via a cable.
 Existing systems occupy a lot of space hence making it difficult to install them in
remote location and places where space is limited. The instruments used are
expensive and already have high cost of installation and maintenance. The current
system faces problems like delay in caution people about worst condition of
weather and instant overcast weather.
Proposed System

 Here we propose a smart weather reporting system over the internet. Our proposed
system allows for weather parameter reporting over the internet. 
 It allows the people to directly check the weather stats online without the need of a
weather forecasting agency. System uses temperature, humidity as well as rain sensor
to monitor weather and provide live reporting of the weather statistics.
 The system constantly monitors temperature using temperature sensor, humidity using
humidity sensor and also for rain. 
 The system constantly transmits this data to the microcontroller, which now processes
this data and keeps on transmitting it to the online web server over a wifi connection. 
 This data is live updated to be viewed on the online server system. Also
system allows user to set alerts for particular instances, the system provides
alerts to user if the weather parameters cross those values.
 Thus the iot based weather reporting system provides an efficient internet
based weather reporting system for users.

Working of Block Diagram
 Since IoT Based Weather Monitoring Systems Work Mostly On Sensors, Hence It
Also Needs A Step-Down Transformer Which Will Bring Down The 230V AC
Supply To 6V AC Supply.
 Microcontroller Will Be Controlling Each And Every Sensor Connect To It. LCD
Display, Rain Drop Sensor, Humidity Sensor And Temperature Sensor All Will Be
Interfaced and The Programming Will Be In C Language If Microcontroller Is An
Arduino Or Node MCU Or The Language Will Be Python In Case Of
Microcontroller As Raspberry Pi. 
 In Case Of Temperature And Humidity Sensors, Whenever The Temperature Will
Increase, Voltage Associated With The Temperature Sensor Will Also Increase
And Whenever Humidity Will Increase Then The Current Associated With The
Humidity Sensor Will Increase. This Increase In Voltage And Current Will Be
Measure By Microcontroller.
 In IOT enabled weather monitoring system project, Arduino uno measures 4 weather parameters
using respective 4 sensors. These sensors are temperature sensor, humidity sensor, light sensor and
rain level sensor. These 4 sensors are directly connected to Arduino uno since it has an inbuilt
analog to digital converter.
 This DHT11 Temperature and Humidity Sensor features digital signal output .It is integrated with a
high-performance 8-bit microcontroller.
 Soil moisture sensors measure the contents in soil.
 The Arduino Uno WiFi is an Arduino Uno with an integrated WiFi module.
 A Liquid Crystal Display commonly abbreviated as LCD is basically a display unit built using Liquid
Crystal technology.
 The rain sensor module is an easy tool for rain detection.
 Arduino calculates and displays these weather parameters on lcd display. Then it sends these
parameters to internet using IOT techniques.
 This data will be send via wi-fi module and can be view on an iot webpage as well. Hence this is A
simple working of A weather reporting system using iot.
 From this blog we can conclude that the weather reporting system using iot is quite cost effective,
efficient.
 Hence ,this system is useful in continuous monitoring of the environment.
Methodology
 This project will focus on development of the Thing Speak an IoT platform that to
show the data of the sensor. The method divided into two parts which are
hardware and software development part. The hardware development involves
the circuit construction and develops the prototype. Meanwhile, the software
part involves the IoT coding, circuit schematic diagram, circuit simulation and
data acquisition.
 By using three (3) types of sensor to monitoring the weather parameter that are
temperature, humidity, rain, and air quality the system will be able to display the
weather condition by an analysis about the current weather with the sensor
value data. All the data will be control by a microcontroller ESP32 and Wemos as
the client that will receive the sensor data from ESP32 and display it on OLED.
 Furthermore, this system will also be seen on Thing Speak channel that has been
created to simplify user to check online.
 The Internet of Things (IoT) will connect the system with the user wireless and
online without the need of checking manually.
