What makes Meteobridge special?
The idea lined out above is very easy so you might ask, why hasn't something like that been created before. To make this idea work you need a cheap platform, powerful enough to run such code plus a development environment to put the application code on top and you need application code that supports a lot of weather stations, to make it a solution suitable to a broad range of customer situations. Recently, these building blocks have come together:
- small and cheap router devices from TP-LINK building the HW platform
- a stable OpenWrt Linux port for this hardware which supports LAN and WLAN
- application software stack from smartbedded which is also used and tested with Meteoplug devices (www.meteoplug.com)
Simply speaking, Meteobridge is bringing these building blocks together and focusing it to the specialized purpose to feed Internet weather networks with your weather station's data.
