Description

This system will provide smaller, higher power efficiency and lighter than current weather sensors. The system will weight no more than 90 grams and be able to measure temperature, dew point, pressure altitude, barometric pressure, density altitude, wind velocity, wind direction, cloud height, and visibility. The system will be as accurate as current larger fielded systems but packaged small enough to fly on micro UAS or hand held modes. Data output will be compliant with user defined XML and graphical user interface will be defined by the user community to enable human overrides to the data for increased accuracy. The system will be powered off of low power DC power sources that are suitable for field and tactical use.
