Orchard Agricultural Weather Stations: Enabling Efficient Climate Monitoring for Fruit Forest Cultivation

Orchard Agricultural Weather Stations are professional devices developed for the characteristics of climate observation in fruit forests. They mainly address issues such as the wide distribution of agricultural and forestry planting areas, numerous monitoring points, and difficulties in wiring and power supply. With remote management of digital data and images as the starting point, the equipment uses IoT technology and wireless networks to build a unified and convenient information interaction platform, enabling efficient monitoring of orchard climates.

In terms of technical application, the device relies on advanced microcomputer technology, sensor technology, and automatic control technology. It transmits data through extensive GPRS or 4G networks, and realizes remote image and data collection and monitoring functions through intelligent human-machine interfaces, as well as computer and mobile terminals, achieving the goal of remote, wireless agricultural climate monitoring anytime and anywhere.

The equipment mainly consists of a lower computer acquisition system, an upper computer software application platform, and auxiliary expansion components. The lower computer acquisition system includes several key components: meteorological sensors for detecting various meteorological data; a microcomputer meteorological data collector for processing the collected information; a power supply system or solar panel for providing stable electricity; a lightweight louver box for providing a suitable measurement environment for sensors; a field protection box for shielding the equipment from field environmental impacts; and a carbon steel meteorological bracket for fixing the equipment.

The upper computer software application platform includes data display systems for computers and mobile terminals, as well as a large-screen display and release system. The computer software has expandable functions and can connect with local agriculture and forestry departments to realize remote monitoring, data storage, data report generation, and other functions. It provides data support for orchard agricultural production, facilitating analytical research and guiding production activities.

The device features flexible communication methods, equipped with both wired and wireless (GSM/GPRS/4G) communication options. For short-distance monitoring scenarios, low-cost on-site wiring is adopted; for long-distance monitoring, data transmission is achieved through wireless communication. This flexible communication design and comprehensive functional configuration enable the device to effectively meet the diverse needs of orchard climate monitoring.
