Abstract
A weather station uses many sensors to collect ambient data. With the help of IoT, it integrates all devices, connects them to the Internet and frames an intelligent ecosystem. For this research, a smart weather monitoring system has been proposed which detects temperature, humidity, pressure, altitude, dew point, and light level, as well as the existence of water in a specific place. All data is shown on the OLED screen and then displayed on the Ubidots website and app. If the vicinity is dark, LED will turn on automatically, and an alert sound will be generated if water is detected. The system also sends SMS based on certain conditions. Authors have used various hardware devices, including Node32 Lite, BMP280, DHT22, MH-RD, OLED, LED, LDR, piezo buzzer, etc., in providing the proof of concept.
