Brief description

Platts Lookout AWS - part of the Tasmanian Hydro-Meteorological Sensor Web. Observed Phenomena: Air Temperature, Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Average Wind Speed, Rainfall Rate, Rainfall Today, Atmospheric Pressure, Barometric Trend, Humidity, Dew Point, UV Index, Solar Radiation. This dataset collection is produced using a Davis Weather Station Wireless Vantage Pro2 Plus 6162. This site is part of a group of sensors that has been installed across Tasmania. Forestry Tasmania uses the sensors predominantly for fire management. In an example of the way the sensor web can be re-purposed, some of the sensors are being used to calibrate and feed river flow forecast models.

Notes

This dataset currently refers to data access services that are based at the CSIRO (www.csiro.au URLs). As part of the project to make these datasets discoverable via RDA, the data access services will be moved to TPAC. When that work is completed (scheduled for February 2012) the URLs and any other relevant information will be updated to reflect the new location of the data access services.

Data time period: 05 08 2011 , 04 08 2010
