Three types of weather observatories

Three types of weather observatories

Meteorological observation stations are now very popular IoT observation devices, which can not only achieve unattended, real-time data collection, but also remote monitoring. How many types of meteorological observation stations are there? The types of instruments usually need to be specifically divided according to application fields and functions. At present, agricultural and forest monitoring stations are more common. Next, let's have a simple understanding!

How many types of weather observatories are there?

Commonly there are agriculture, grassland forests, road traffic, air quality, water quality, ocean and lake observation stations, etc. There will be certain changes in the parameters that need to be observed in different fields. In the agricultural field, it is usually necessary to observe parameters such as soil moisture, wind speed and direction, and sunshine. The forest field needs to observe air temperature, humidity, rainfall, snowfall, etc.

1. Agricultural Meteorological Observatory

This instrument is usually used to monitor meteorological parameters such as soil moisture, soil temperature, wind speed, light, wind direction, and rainfall. Through the construction of agricultural monitoring stations, people can understand real-time meteorological and biological information, and provide scientific guidance for agricultural production. Through the cloud monitoring platform, users can understand the meteorological data of farmland, greenhouses, tea gardens, orchards and other areas, and scientifically carry out irrigation, fertilization, and spraying.

2. Road Traffic Meteorological Observation Station

This type can be used to observe road traffic conditions and carry out weather warnings in bad weather. The instrument can also monitor air quality, parameters including sulfur dioxide SO2, nitrogen dioxide NO2, PM2.5, PM10, carbon monoxide CO, wind speed, wind direction, air temperature, air pressure and temperature and other meteorological parameters. In addition, visibility, road icing conditions, water accumulation conditions, etc. can also be monitored according to actual needs.

3. Grassland Forest Meteorological Observatory

Grassland and forestry are also key areas of meteorological observation. Users can learn about the vegetation growth status, utilization status, and disaster status of grassland forests, and display relevant data in real time through the platform. Usually, monitoring devices include atmospheric pressure sensors, wind direction sensors, rainfall sensors, soil temperature and humidity sensors, snow volume sensors, air temperature and humidity sensors, and the like.

The above are the types of weather stations introduced to you. In different fields, there are certain differences in the observed meteorological elements, and it is necessary to flexibly select the appropriate configuration according to the actual needs.
