Abstract: The purpose of this project is to design and implement a cost effective, portable weather station to measure and display different weather parameters. Conventional weather stations are larger in size and incur a huge cost of installment, which is a limiting factor for developing countries. Although low cost miniature systems are also available but they are of poor precision. The goal of the project is to introduce an economical system that ensures flexibility, portability, scalability and user friendly operations. The design incorporates sensors and equipments to assess temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind speed, precipitation, presence of rain, UV index, dust density, ambient light intensity and presence of different gas in the atmosphere. To measure wind speed and precipitation, conducive mechanical structures are designed which can be made from locally available materials. The system utilizes solar energy which makes it a stand-alone system. Measured data through the developed system can be uploaded to the web server and sent to the user through web page or through text messages.
