Design of real-time weather monitoring system based on mobile application using automatic weather station

摘要

This paper proposes the design of real-time weather monitoring system based on a mobile application using Automatic Weather Station (AWS). The system connects to the AWS equipped with several sensors for collecting data and storing the data to the web server. Data from weather sensor is taken from the AWS-Davis Instrument using the WeatherLink software. The data is transmitted through the data logger using serial communication, uploaded via FTP and stored on a webserver. The Android application reads the files and displays the information provided by the web server in real-time. The system has successfully show real-time monitoring of weather through the mobile application with a flexibility in the parameters and the need of user interface (UI) design compared to the other solution.
