WS-2000
The Ambient Weather WS-2000 is a comprehensive local and remote monitoring package with free cloud hosting services at AmbientWeather.net. The outdoor wireless all-in-one integrated sensor array measures wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, UV and solar radiation. The brilliant, dynamic high definition TFT color display console combines measured parameters with calculated data, such as 'Feels Like' Temperature (Wind Chill and Heat Index), Dew Point, Wind Speed and Direction (averaged once per second over 16 seconds), Gust (the maximum wind speed sampled once per second in the 16 second update period), 10 Minute Wind Speed and Direction Average, Sunrise, Sunset, Moon Phase, Forecast, and more. The display is easy to read, day or night, and includes a light and dark colored background. It includes NIST internet time server synchronization, imperial and metric units of measure, high and low alarm conditions with audible alert, calibration of all major parameters, real-time internet weather publishing, and encrypted WiFi transmission. The WS-2000 also displays minimum and maximum conditions with time and date stamp, historical archived data, which can be exported to SD Card for advanced data analysis in Excel, the SD Card is also used for firmware updates. The tablet connects to WiFi and the Internet. The WiFi settings are entered directly into the display tablet using the interactive buttons. The console supports up to eight additional Thermo-Hygrometer Sensors (Item WH31, sold separately). Place the optional sensors in and around your house for extensive home or business monitoring.
ObserverIP
The ObserverIP module receives data from the sensor array and connects to your router. The ObserverIP is configured through any web browser, and includes a live data page that is scrapable by an Ambient Weather Weatherbridge, a Meteobridge, or other custom solution.
Ecowitt GW-1000
Basically an updated version of the ObserverIP that runs via WiFi and supports many more sensors. It directly supports both Ecowitt and Ambient Weather sensors.
Meteobridge
The Meteobridge (also AW Weatherbridge) module reads data from the ObserverIP, and makes it available as desired to 25 services (including WU, CWOP, UK Met, and Open Weather Map). Additionally, the Weatherbridge can publish data to Twitter, to an SQL database, email data, ftp data, or send an SMS via a web gateway. It is a flexible and powerful system and is key to reading the data for my station from the ObserverIP and sending it to the SQL database that powers this website.
