Abstract

The pursuit for a weather monitoring system is critical for the measurement and observation of environmental parameters that are connected with human activities and habitation. In this study, a revolutionary weather monitoring system that uses a flexible graphical user interface (GUI) platform through a JAVA script software code is designed. The device is embedded with a ATMEGA 328P-PU microcontroller for the analysis of the signals from temperature, humidity, wind speed and rainfall rate sensor respectively. An analogue to digital converter initiates a signal conversion that enable GUI, to capture a reliable weather parameter at an interval of 10 minutes on a real time; through an ESP8266 Wi-Fi shield that creates a remote and host link between the sensors and the GUI. The developed system’s performance was evaluated by comparing results with available weather monitoring instruments. The developed system compared favourably with an available weather monitoring instrument with mean average accuracy of 99.96%, 99.41%, 99.96% and 99.26% in temperature, humidity, wind speed and rainfall rate respectively.
