Basics

  • A "weather station"
  • Essentially a self contained sensor suite
  • Is modular, but should measure most/all of these things:
    • Air temperature
    • Relative humidity
    • Vapor pressure
    • Barometric pressure
    • Wind speed
    • Wind Direction
    • Gust/Gust Liklyness/Frequency (Via Software from other wind stuff)
    • Solar Radiation (General Brightness, and/or UV brightness)
    • Day/Night Time/Cycle (Via software from solar stuff)
    • Precipitation (any form, with differentation)
    • Lightning Strike Counter
    • Distance
