Meteorological data are very important for an accurate analysis of the exact cause of flood, that is why it is very important to have a large as possible data set in order to make adequate predictions. The cost of a fully equipped meteorological station varies between 15000-20000 Euros which is quite expensive for Albania, that is why there are only about 30 of them active at the moment. About 150 stations measure partial information, mainly temperature and some of them water level.This project aims to increase the number of meteorological stations in Albania considerably, to have a wider distribution of stations for a better weather monitoring in the country, thus obtaining a far larger amount of data in order to better analyze weather phenomena and propose more adequate solutions for the mitigation or prevention of floods.

The low cost meteorological station is a module composed of a microcontroller connected to:
See more information about this level and the TRL and SRL levels.
The low cost meteorological station is a module composed of a micro-controller connected to:GPS, Precipitation,Humidity, Temperature sensor,Real time data transmitter connected to internet via SIM card.The cost of a module varies between 30-50 Euros. Each module delivers data in defined time periods will be archived in the server of the project. The real time data of each of the stations will be available online for every internet user. The users can reach the real time data simply by clicking on the map. Also companies, public or research institutions will be able to receive the information in return of a payment or in accordance with any agreement between the project administration and the respective end-user.
