What Are Weather Stations Used For?

With the development of modern technology, weather monitoring equipment is no longer the exclusive domain of the weather bureau, and weather monitoring no longer relies solely on weather forecasting. Modern weather stations have been developed to make up for the shortcomings of traditional weather monitoring points and the lack of timely delivery of monitoring information, and are used in a wide range of industries in production and life. We can choose weather stations for different application scenarios.

1. Weather Stations on Campus

A weather station on campus is called a 'campus weather station'. The establishment of a campus weather station stimulates students' interest in exploring science, builds a good platform for students to explore weather science knowledge and enhances the connotation of campus weather science in schools. By setting up a campus weather station, weather knowledge such as weather changes and disaster prevention and mitigation is brought into the campus.

The campus weather station has popularized weather knowledge among school students, exercised students' ability to participate in social practice, enlivened students' after-school life and optimized the campus science education environment.

2. Weather Stations In Agriculture

Weather stations are used in agriculture and are known as 'agricultural weather stations'. With agricultural weather stations, farmers can keep up to date with climate data and take timely and scientific management measures to guide production and improve agricultural productivity and standards.

In addition to this, it provides growers with data they can rely on to mitigate weather disasters and allows farmers to know in real time the environmental conditions in which their crops are growing, such as when to water and when to fertilize. Overall, the main purpose of the agricultural weather station itself is to help growers grow more effectively.

3. Weather Stations used in the Field Environment

Weather monitoring in the field is subject to a lot of uncertainty, and sometimes the measurements are taken on the go. For this reason, we choose "portable weather stations" as the weather monitoring equipment for field environment measurements.
