New product launch preview for the Meteorological Technology World Expo in October 2018

The 2018 show will launch MeteoWind® Compact anemometer, ezMETAR weather stations and MeteoHelix® research-grade micro-weather stations based on the award-winning helical MeteoShield® Pro design.

The inventor of the helical radiation shield will be presenting and explaining the principles behind this innovative helical weather station. After over 12 years of research and 10 years of field experience, MeteoHelix® weather stations based on the patented design of the helical solar shield, allow previously difficult-to-achieve measurement accuracy, precision and reliability in an economical all-in-one weather station. These solar powered and wireless all-in-one weather stations are able to remain operational for 6+ months without sunlight and can use satellite data uplinks for meteorological data with satellite LoRaWAN gateways.

BARANI DESIGN Technologies will be exhibiting the helical MeteoShield® Professional, MeteoHelix® and professional AWOS weather stations in booth 10005 at the Meteorological Technology World Expo on 09-11 October 2018 in Hall 8, Amsterdam RAI, in the Netherlands.

What is real air temperature and how can technology be better used to measure it?

Since there exists no clear definition of "true near-surface atmospheric air temperature", the author, Jan Barani explains why this is the case and how the latest technologies are coming ever closer to uncovering this often ignored mystery of meteorology in present weather observations.

Find out in laymen's terms:

• What is air temperature from the view point of air?

• What really affects true air temperature?

• The observer effect's contribution to the mystery of what "true near-surface atmospheric air temperature" is?

• What is the future of air temperature measurement?

MeteoHelix®, ezMETAR & new MeteoWind® Compact will be showcased at Meteorological Technology World Expo 2018 on October 9-11

MeteoWind® Compact ANALOG OUTPUT anemometer with a wind vane

BARANI DESIGN Technologies will showcase their latest product innovations which will include the MeteoHelix® IoT Pro micro-weather stations, ezMETAR airport and heliport weather station & the new MeteoWind® Compact anemometer with a wind vane and analog output. 

Free visitor badges are available directly on the Meteorological Technology World Expo website at the following link: http://www.meteorologicaltechnologyworldexpo.com/en/

MeteoWind® Compact

The MeteoWind® Compact will feature a reed switch wind speed sensor with two pulses per revolution and analog 0...2.5 V wind direction sensor without a dead band and better than 2 ° accuracy. With an average power consumption reaching down to only 20 µA in addition to lightning protected outputs, it is designed for wireless solar and battery powered applications in precision agriculture and meteorology alongside MeteoHelix® IoT Pro weather stations.

MeteoHelix® IoT Pro

MeteoHelix® IoT Pro micro-weather stations will be displayed along with allMETEO® weather map and cloud portal. allMETEO® is designed not to replace but to complement customers' existing analytical software. Its main function is for weather station management, meteorological data management and live weather view of these affordable research-grade accuracy all-in-one solar powered wireless weather stations. A few lucky visitors at the Expo will be able to take home a MeteoHelix® IoT Pro Sigfox version as well.

ezMETAR

ezMETAR, the affordable AUTO-METAR featuring ICAO approved sensors will also be displayed at the Expo, allowing visitors to see first hand its high quality sensor and data logger suite along with strong lightning protection and intelligent solar power management system.  

BARANI DESIGN Technologies will be located in stand number 10005 near Vaisala and IBL Software Engineering.
