MeteoHelix, the basis for the fastest growing private WMO conforming meteorological networks

Not long ago, IoT stood for quantity and not quality. The MeteoHelix® IoT Pro micro-weather stations are here to change that. Taking advantage of the low-power wireless IoT innovations in combination with top-notch professional measurement technology, a unique micro-weather station that complies with the highest WMO and NWS measurement standards was forged.

This unique technological combination in the MeteoHelix has become the building block technology enabling climatological networks to meet strict WMO measurement standards affordably. An unexpected side benefit of this adoption has been the staggering growth rates of these networks, some of which are more than doubling in size each year. One of the fastest-growing networks is located in Belgium, which has recently become the country with the most densely populated WMO-compliant weather stations per square kilometer.

The year 2022 brings improvements to the MeteoHelix IoT Pro based on input from researchers in Antarctica and the Death Valley and feedback from many other climates. This guarantees pure measurement accuracy and data quality not based on data corrections and black-box artificial intelligence algorithms to compensate for low-quality meteorological measurements. The MeteoHelix IoT Pro provides uniform data quality in all climates ranging from the snow-covered planes of Antarctica to the rain forests of Indonesia and the sun-soaked deserts of the Death Valley.

This month in Chicago, BARANI DESIGN Technologies will be exhibiting and looking for B2B partnerships for the USA, Canada, and Mexico markets at the Meteorological Technology World Expo North America. This B2B expo will be at the Stephens Convention Center in Chicago on August 31 and September 1, 2022.

Set-and-Forget Rain Gauge

Wireless MeteoRain IoT Compact is based on the MeteoRain 200 Compact rain gauge and offers users the freedom to collect rain measurements without having to install weather stations.

Measurement consistency, compact size, and its ability to measure even when not wholly level make the MeteoRain 200 Compact rain gauge a favorite for watershed monitoring, agriculture, and smart-city installations. Also available in a wireless version, this compact rain gauge not only features a standardized 200 cm2 measuring orifice area to WMO standards but does this in a very compact package whose installation is limited to just four screws.

Featuring a self-balancing, highly vibration-resistant measuring mechanism, it can provide consistent data quality for years on end. Additionally, long-term maintenance-free operation requires only a single re-calibration within 6-12 months of installation to account for soiling, after which it can operate with minimal measurement uncertainty for years.

Generation 3 Reference Standard Solar Radiation Shield for Temperature Sensors

Cutaway of the Gen 3 MeteoShield Pro with Vaisala HMP155 temperature sensor and additional temperature probe inside.

Sometimes the best gets better, which is the case with the only helical solar radiation shield for weather station temperature sensors. Listening to feedback from its customers in Antarctica, the Death Valley, and the Sahara, BARANI DESIGN Technologies has brought the last few remaining improvements to the already class-leading helical MeteoShield® Professional.

This new 3rd generation (Gen 3) naturally ventilated solar radiation shield features improved reflected light control from snow-covered or solar-heated ground while maintaining the high air flow rates, which is the number one factor guaranteeing measurement quality. Additionally, solar-powered artificial fan ventilation is available for the rare, less than 0.5 m/s (1.1mph) wind conditions, where all naturally ventilated solar shields show some signs of solar heating.

While these improvements may seem subtle to the naked eye, their combined effect reduces the already class-leading measurement uncertainty in all weather conditions to below 0.1°C, far below even many fan-ventilated solar screen counterparts.

This August in Chicago, BARANI DESIGN Technologies will be exhibiting and looking for B2B partnerships for the USA, Canada, and Mexico markets at the Meteorological Technology World Expo North America. This B2B expo will be at the Stephens Convention Center in Chicago on August 31 and September 1, 2022.
