Abstract

This paper primarily blends two-study fields based on control systems with data acquisition methodology and builds a database system to produce the data according to the chosen attributes. The sensors for weather station were used to quantify and store data about temperature, humidity, and wind speed. The collected data can be represented as direct and indirect in two forms owing to the regular reading and preservation of the data as a specific database system respectively. The new technologies for the development of databases are considered the main challenge of this research. The entire system tracks and controls positions centrally and remotely depending on the regular climate change that happens, to keep the desired positions in optimal environmental situations. The proposed device uses an ESP8266 node MCU microcontroller to manage and monitor the condition of the location whenever and wherever remotely controlled NET PI network system is used. The ESP8266 serves as an AP access point, connected to the network through a Wi-Fi (router) station. Furthermore, the webserver can automatically and manually switch the devices ON/OFF through the NETPI platform. Finally, the weather information can be realized in the same manner and can be stored in an excel sheet simultaneously to be visualized via the R programming language.
