Three Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Used in Weather Forecasting



UAV used in Weather Monitoring

The UAV applications in weather monitoring are increasing and in the future, many places on the Earth is slowly becoming inaccessible to human being due to climate change and its impacts like wildfire, flood, etc. This video shows the three most used UAVs in weather monitoring and forecasting.

Airmar’s 150WX WeatherStation

 UK’s National Oceanography Centre (NOC) has selected this UAV for monitoring and gathering weather information with the help of its 150WX WeatherStation Instrument. This instrument can measure wind speed, air temperature, barometric pressure, and relative humidity data for a long duration.

Hobby king Bixler 2.0 + Weather Monitoring Sensors

A Hobbyking Bixler 2.0 plane fitted with multiple sensors which can measure humidity, temperature, and CO levels. A wireless camera is mounted in the aircraft for providing visual inputs to the user. Various pollutants can also be recognized and identified. This new project had modified an existing unmanned vehicle into a sophisticated weather monitoring station at much less cost compared to other available UAVs.



New Drones of OSU

Oklahoma State University is developing new drones to gather information from more parts of the Earth’s atmosphere. This will help forecasters to predict the weather after one hour also. Their drones are utilized to gather climatic information from more parts of the troposphere to identify the exact correlations that exist between the causal parameters of weather patterns.

Five Most Innovative Rain Water Harvesting Projects

Rainwater harvesting is known to be one of the most prominent solutions to the impending vulnerability of many watersheds all over the world due to climate change impacts. The rejuvenation of the watersheds with the help of innovative rainwater harvesting can prevent further deterioration of the basins. Below are the five most intelligent water harvesting methods adopted by the stakeholders to restore their watersheds which ensured their sustainability. Mega muddy rainwater harvesting System/project "Harvested water is used for fish farming, banana plantation, Sericulture, Floriculture and for other purposes." Story of Dhun "the first step for his dream project was to bring water to this dry land and using traditional water harvesting practices the land today has more than 8 waterbodies in it..." Rain Water Harvesting in Kenya, Ethiopia, and Uganda "There is hardly a place in the world where it never rains. Rainwater belongs to everyone. And the methods to coll

Autocorrelation in Water Resource Development

A new article was posted in HydroGeek : Five Most Recent Research Works on Autocorrelation in Water Resource Management Autocorrelation is the correlation between two part of a single data series and is useful when the trendability of a parameter is approximated with the help of data. Most used in water research study. This article highlights the most recent research works on the application of autocorrelation on water resource development studies.
