- The Georgia Automated Environmental Monitoring Network
The Georgia Automated Environmental Monitoring Network was established in 1991
by the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences of the University
of Georgia. The objective of the AEMN is to collect reliable weather information
for agricultural and environmental applications. Each station monitors air
temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, solar radiation, wind speed, wind
direction, soil temperature at 2, 4, and 8 inch depths, atmospheric pressure,
and soil moisture every 1 second. Data are summarized at 15 minute intervals
and at midnight a daily summary is calculated. A microcomputer at the Georgia
Experiment Station initiates telephone calls to each station periodically
and downloads the recorded data. The data are processed immediately and disseminated
via the world wide web (Georgiaweather.net).
