Data Recording and Distribution

Campbell Scientific CR200X Data Logger

Records measurements from all instruments and outputs data via serial to converter every 1 second:

  • Date Time (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS)
  • Latitude (deg)
  • Longitude (deg)
  • Altitude (m)
  • Minimum Battery Voltage (V)
  • 3m Average Wind Speed (m/s)
  • 3m Maximum Wind Speed (m/s)
  • 3m Average Wind Direction (°)
  • 2m Average Temperature (°C)
  • 2m Average Relative Humidity (%)
  • 2m Average Dew Point (°C)
  • 2m Average Wet Bulb Temperature (°C)
  • 2m Average Mixing Ratio (g/kg)
  • 2m Average Equivalent Potential Temperature (°K)
  • Average Station Pressure (hPa)
  • Average Mean Sea-Level Pressure (hPa)
  • Average Altimeter Setting (inHg)
  • Average Density Altitude (ft)
  • Average Pressure Altitude (ft)
  • Total Hourly Rainfall (in)

US Converters S2W232E-ESP32 Serial to WiFi Adapter

Takes serial data output from CR200X and sends to LAN for Arduino.

QuinLED-EPS32

Reads serial data output from Serial to WiFi Converter and uploads data via HTTPPost query to script on webserver each new data entry.

Web Server

PHP script extracts data values from Arduino query and inserts them into MySQL 8 database.
