In Chapter 2, Making Visual Data and Animation on an LCD, we learned what a weather monitoring system is. To build a weather station, we require an understanding of weather monitoring systems. We will focus on building a weather station in this chapter. A weather station has more features than a weather monitoring system; we can send a result of the measurement to the backend server on a weather station. In general, we can describe a simple model of a weather station-based IoT as shown in Figure 6.1. A weather station consists of the following modules:
- An MCU is used to process all computations.
- Environmental sensors are sensor devices used to convert physical objects into digital form. In the context of weather stations, environmental sensors can be temperature, humidity, wind speed, and direction.
- A network module is used to transfer sensor data...
