Weather Data Critical to Pollution Monitoring

06 May, 2009

Published over 17 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Weather monitoring.

We all know that accurate, relevant data is important to making the best management decisions possible. The quality of that data is even more relevant when monitoring sensitive sites, or trying to ensure increasingly stringent environmental licence conditions are met.

Questions such as; When do we need to be careful of emissions drift and put management strategies into place? How much rain have we had, will there be overflow or leachate issues to deal with? What were the evaporation rates  last week? Your site will almost certainly experience weather conditions that will be quite different from what the weather bureau records. You will have your own micro-climate, with unique wind movement, rainfall, temperature and evaporation rates. With on site conditions that can vary wildly from the official reports, collecting on-site weather data is becoming increasingly important.

So how do you collect accurate, relevant and reliable weather data for your site? The answer is to install your own Environdata (Australia) automatic weather station, to keep historical records, provide live data on demand, provide the information you need to be confident in the management decisions you make, with accurate records to back you up.

Not all weather stations are created equal. With an Environdata weather station - a true professional station - you will receive the quality you deserve, PLUS 10 years free phone and email support, high quality windows software, full system integration capability, quality backup, service and advice.
