WEATHER REPORTING SYSTEM

Abstract

Weather forecast these days is unpredictable too be exact because of the climate changes drastically over weather. In cause of that, Weather Reporting System is mostly used to monitor the continuously changing climatic and weather conditions over controlled areas likes house, industry, agriculture and etc. in real time monitoring. Internet of Things (IoT) platform use is ThingSpeak it’s should be able displaying the weather parameters and the information will visible wherever in the world and it’s also displaying on the OLED with two-way microcontroller communication via Wi-Fi hotspots. The condition of some particular place that be reported by satellite weather report system does not give the exact condition. However, the problem occurs when needed the accurate weather report for current time. With weather reporting system all weather parameters sensor will be controlled by ESP32 microcontroller as the server that will send all the data collected by sensors to the database by ThingSpeak and will visible anywhere in the world and also display on LCD that use microcontroller and a client. This data then will be compared with the weather forecast data and statistics made by forecast station. All data collected will be also saved in google sheet format by IFTT tool for easier to analyse the data. This system will monitor the changes of weather condition happening over the environment and then provides the users fastest way to access the information from anywhere.

Existing System

Proposed System

This project will focus on development of the ThingSpeak an IoT platform that to show the data of the sensor. The method divided into two parts which are hardware and software development part. The hardware development involves the circuit construction and develops the prototype. Meanwhile, the software part involves the IoT coding, circuit schematic diagram, circuit simulation and data acquisition. By using three (3) types of sensor to monitoring the weather parameter that are temperature, humidity, rain, and air quality the system will be able to display the weather condition by an analysis about the current weather with the sensor value data. All the data will be control by a microcontroller ESP32 and Wemos as the client that will receive the sensor data from ESP32 and display it on OLED. Furthermore, this system will also be seen on ThingSpeak channel that has been created to simplify user to check online and also an android application that is Blynk to display the sensor data. The data collected will be analyse and compare it with Jabatan Meteorologi Malaysia to ensure the precise of data and weather condition on current condition. The Internet of Things (IoT) will connect the system with the user wireless and online without the need of checking manually.
