Multi channel data acqusition and data logging system for meteorology application

This paper reports design of an automated, low cost multi-channel data acquisition and data logging system for meteorological application. Different meteorological parameters such as environmental temperature, barometric pressure, altitude, light intensity, and relative humidity are acquired in real time and stored in a database for future reference. ATmega328P microcontroller and LabVIEW are used to develop the system. The PC based system has been tested and is working satisfactorily.
