Weather Observation Systems
AQMSGROUP’s weather stations are designed and manufactured in Australia to meet the demands of Australia’s wide range of harsh environmental conditions. Built to commercial and scientific research standards, our weather stations are flexible and configurable to suit a wide variety of industries and applications.
An automated weather observation system (AWOS) is a piece of equipment that can automatically collect weather-related data, such as wind speed, rainfall, temperature, humidity, and wind direction. By installing sensors capable of measuring multiple items onsite, observations that were previously conducted by a manned system can now be conducted unmanned.
Automated weather observation systems are widely used by fire departments, local governments, industrial fields such as factories and construction sites, and research institutes. Not only weather data related to rain and wind, but also those with webcams have been developed.
Off-the-shelf products are also available, but many can be custom made to suit the user’s application.

Uses for Automated Weather Observation Systems
Automated weather observation systems are used in all kinds of situations because they combine multiple weather observation sensors and can be operated unattended. They are used in agriculture and research institutes for the purpose of monitoring weather data itself, in fire departments and local governments for disaster prevention, such as monitoring rivers and coastlines, and in monitoring rainfall and wind speed for the purpose of preventing traffic accidents.
Principle of Automated Weather Observation Systems
An automated weather observation system consists of a sensor for weather observation, a data logger for storing the acquired data, and communication equipment.
To enable observation in environments where it is difficult to secure a power source, efforts have been made to reduce the power consumption of Data Loggers and to support battery power sources. The methods and principles of observing temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc. in weather observation systems differ for each item.
Sensors for each item are selected and combined as necessary, and installed together with a recorder and power supply. Data output methods also vary. Some sensors store data directly in the main unit, others issue alarms in response to the data, and some models have communication functions and can automatically upload data to the cloud.
In recent years, local weather observation has become increasingly necessary due to global warming and frequent extreme weather events. The range of choice has expanded from simple, cost-saving devices that combine sensors to highly accurate, robust, high-performance devices, which has lowered the hurdle to obtaining weather observation data and brought important data in operations for agricultural facilities, local governments, and others
Our full range of Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Systems:
Ambient air monitoring, using real time dust measuring t - PM10, PM2.5, and TSP sensors, tracks pollutant levels and trends. This ensures air quality assessment, regulatory compliance, and helps manage dust pollution in various environments.
Explore our air quality monitoring solutions, offering precise, real-time measurement of airborne pollutants. Our Air Quality Analyser reliably detects trace compounds, including particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and ozone (O3).
Vibration monitoring is essential for ensuring safety, reliability, and performance across industrial, construction, and infrastructure settings. By continuously or periodically measuring vibrations, it detects potential issues early, preventing costly repairs, downtime, and accidents.
Environmental monitoring weather stations, using techniques such as wind speed and direction measurement, temperature monitoring, and ceilometer data, help meet compliance requirements by providing crucial weather and air quality data for Development Approvals and Licences to Operate.
Class 1 Ambient noise monitoring is the process of measuring and analyzing the levels of noise in an environment to understand the sources, patterns, and impact of noise on both human health and the surrounding environment.
Australian standards HiVol particulate sampler enables remote, unattended sampling of PM2.5, PM10, or TSP, providing accurate data across urban air quality networks for effective monitoring and analysis of particulate pollution.
