Abstract

Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), being the country’s weather bureau, is the one presently monitoring weather conditions. PAGASA has many observation sites and one is the Science Garden which is located in Agham Road, Quezon City. The present system in the Science Garden requires an observer to go to the instrument shelter to take readings and then translate it to weather parameters. Due to the different environmental conditions, readings could be affected as it is taken manually. Safety concerns also pose a threat as observers are required to take readings in the open field. An AWS was made to address such problems as it is automated. Being automated, the weather parameters are sent automatically to the observers PC via SMS. This ensures that during harsh weather conditions, the safety and well-being of the observers are taken care of. Given that technology will drive towards AWS in the future, our system could be considered as an extra node that can be deployed to any part of the country. The hardware and software components of this study include a GSM module, Sensor modules and software such as Apache Web server, MySQL Database and PHP Scripts. © 2019, World Academy of Research in Science and Engineering.
