Abstract :
This paper presents the design and implementation of a remote data logger based on GPRS connection, used for weather forecasting and statistical deduction of climate. The device presented in this paper is an interface between the weather station and a remote operator. The system is based on a microcontroller, a cellular engine, an SD card and a real time clock and it is able to measure, calculate, store and transmit weather parameters.
