This is a complete internet-based GPRS solar powered weather station. Place this unit anywhere in the world where there is GSM cellphone coverage and it will report real time data through to this web site (or your web site) via the Internet. The system reports at least every 60 minutes - immediately for alarms and every minute during a frost event. It uses GPRS and data compression to minimise monthly cell phone charges.

It has sensors for temperature (wired and wireless), rainfall, wind speed and direction, soil moisture, leaf wetness, humidity (used for calculating dew point temperature) and solar radiation (used to calculate evapotranspiration).

Text messages, voice messages or emails can be sent when alarm levels are exceeded (e.g., frost alarm, high temperature alarm, high rainfall, high wind).
