Benefits
- High degree of automation of measurement, processing and display of information
- Transmitting weather information to consumers via wireless (GSM or satellite) communication channels
- Integration with the ground water measurement system is provided
- Open architecture
- Modular design
Surveillance network arrangement:
- information from all weather stations is sent to the dispatch center
- rapid response to changes in weather conditions
- weather forecasting
It is possible to pair with other equipment to monitor the status of the environment.
Scope
Road management, agro-industrial sector, other sectors of the national economy.
Principle of Operation
The principle of operation is based on the transformation of meteorological parameters into electrical signals and then into the digital codes to be subsequently processed, stored and visualized using the specialized software.
List of Measurement Equipment
- Meteorological (optical) visibility range sensor
- Wind speed and direction sensor
- Air temperature and humidity measurement sensor
- Atmospheric pressure sensor
- Road surface condition sensor
All these sensors are connected to the processor unit that obtains, processes and visualizes information on a computer screen or display.
