Product description: Arduino IoT Weather Station - kit for building a weather station - SparkFun KIT-22636
Do you dream of building your own weather station, but you have trouble selecting components? SparkFun comes to the rescue and has prepared an Arduino IoT Weather Station kit containing all the necessary elements to construct a home station. The set includes, among others, the SparkFun MicroMod Weather board without a UV sensor, a wind speed and direction sensor, a rainfall sensor, a soilmoisture sensor, as well as the necessaryassembly materials , clamps, connecting cables and RJ11 cables.
Be sure to check the user guide prepared by the manufacturer!
Special features of the Arduino IoT Weather Station
- The heart of the station is SparkFun MicroMod - ESP32, equipped with a dual-core Tensilica LX6 microprocessor, as well as built-in BME280 temperature, pressure and humidity sensors and an AS3935 lightning detector.
- Parameters can be seamlessly recorded and monitored using Arduino Cloud and IoT platforms.
- It has a slot for inserting a microSD memory card, which allows you to record all collected weather data.
- The set also includes a self-emptying rain gauge in the form of a bucket that collects water from rainfall. A precisely determined amount of collected rainfall, i.e. 0.2794 mm, activates the switch, which closes the circuit.
- It also has an anemometer, i.e. a wind speed meter, which uses the closing of an electric circuit by a magnetic switch for measurements. Every 2.4 km/h of wind speed generates 1 pulse per second (1 Hz).
- The operation of the weather station is based on a system of magnetic sensors.
