The MAWS301 Automatic Weather Station (AWS) is a weather station especially designed for applications where no commercial power or communication networks are present or economically installed. This product is a compact, scalable, environmentally robust and a low power system to provide reliable and continuous data of a broad range of meteorological and hydrological parameters. It is based on the latest technology both in measurements and communication. It interfaces with various telecommunication equipment such a PSTN and GSM modems and UHF radio modems as well as satellite transmitters. For weather forecasting or for early warning of bad weather, the data is also required from very remote places, where no commercial telecommunication services exist. Also, the locations may often be beyond cellular coverage or in valleys shadowed by mountains. Vaisala is successfully incorporating the Satel’s Satelline-3AS radio modems in the MAWS systems. One single weather station can serve as a repeater for several other stations thus extending the communication path to tens of kilometers.
