Local weather analyzer

Created on 27 Nov 2015

Crowd sourcing weather data collection for more accurate local weather predictions.

We will use the Particle prototype, and sensors that collect data relevant to weather analysing to build a module that can collect weather data, without ever running out of charge for years. Once data is collected, it will be sent to a server to be analysed. Multiple modules would be used in an area as a sensory array to provide more accurate and local on the spot weather data to meteorology centers worldwide. With enough sensors, a machine learning algorithm can be used to help predict weather in a certain area.
