Abstract

Weather affects a wide range of activities. So monitoring weather and environment is very crucial. This project is based on the concept of using the Raspberry Pi as an interfacing device as well as a web server. The aim of this project is to design a weathermonitoring station that can take measurements of the temperature, rain, wind velocity and direction, humidity and save them on a server so that this data can be accessed from anywhere via the Internet. This system is designed using a Raspberry Pi. Every home, school or workplace has its own microclimate, so by taking measurements, unique local data is generated.
