Existing System
The existing weather monitoring
systems typically involve an array of
sophisticated sensors, satellite imagery, and
data processing units, enabling
comprehensive data collection across large
geographic areas. These systems can monitor
multiple weather parameters, including
temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed,
and air quality, among others. The collected
data is often transmitted to central weather
monitoring centers, where it is processed,
analyzed, and disseminated to the public and
relevant authorities for decision-making
purposes. While these highend devices serve
critical roles in weather forecasting and
disaster management on a large scale, their
implementation for monitoring weather in a
small region raises several challenges.
