Abstract:
In the recent years, there has been a lot of interest in
global climate change. People want to be aware of the most
recent weather conditions in their vicinity and immediate
surroundings. This study presents a prototype of an Internet of
Things-based system that uses sensors to monitor weather
conditions. Three separate sensors, including an ultrasonic
sensor, a raindrop sensor, and a pressure sensor, were used.
The microcontroller board served as the system's brain. The
sensors continuously collect weather data and transmit it
through Wi-Fi to a remote server. The weather data is moved
to a cloud platform, which gives real-time weather informatics
reporting on a website after that. The platform employed in
this study was Amazon Web Services (AWS) IoT, and Amazon
DynamoDB was used to store sensor data. The IoT presents a
novel perspective on future environmental monitoring.
Consequently, the role of the Internet of Things in the
developing field of environmental informatics is also covered in
this study.
