Weather Station

💡
I am no electronics engineer nor do I design PCBs profesionally. This is a personal project of myself that I'm interested in. I do not recommend you to replicate these practices as electricity can be very dangerous. This is only for educational purposes.

Measuring the local weather has always been a little dream of me. Public weather station often provide very little detail in the data provided and I wanted to get myself into data analysis & soldering.

This project has slowly started growing in complexity and I will explain it on this blog. I will also make the data publicly acessible as soon as all data is being measured correctly - stay tuned.

Proof of concept for the weather station (2022)
First iteration of the custom made PCB (2022), addition of a geiger counter, custom made PCB printed by JLCPCB and lots of incorrec traces / plugs that didn't fit
Second iteration of the custom made PCB (2023), only small improvements to iteration 1 PCB. Added more ports and moved some components.
Third iteration of the PCB with SMD components, tighter spacing, a surface mounted MCU and other components (2024)
