About This Station
The station is powered by a Davis Vantage Vue weather station.
The data is collected every 2 seconds. The site is updated on the following timeframe:
- Live data every minute
- Further hourly data every 5 minutes
- Graphs every 15 minutes
- Daily overviews every 30 minutes
- Previous days data, is processed 1 minute to midnight every day
This station uses a Davis Vantage Vue and a Raspberry Pi 3 setup. CumulusMX software is being used to process the data.
Since the start of the project, the station has gone through 3 Raspberry Pi devices as well as around six SD Cards.
Initially, there were some outages, predominantly caused by the corruption of the image on the SD Card for the Pi. There are unfortunately gaps in the data because of these occasional losses of data. Data losses are much lower following CumulusMX being used.
This project is purely a hobby, and the data on this website should not be used to make any life changing or threatening, important decisions. There are no guarantees on the uptime, or the accuracy of the data on this website.
