Short summary
The aim of the project is to build a device to measure atmospheric climate variables and to demonstrate and explain some weather phenomenon. The observations are stored in a database, the data archive and visualization of the data are accessible through a webpage. Students from other schools can get involved in the measurements with their own built devices and can upload their own measurements to the common database. We could create a weather map and a network of minimeteo stations for schools.
