Fengtu Campus Weather Stations: Tailored Solutions Across Educational Stages

Meteorological science serves as an important window connecting nature and humanity. It not only helps us understand weather changes but also guides us to comprehend the operational laws of the ecosystem. On campus, the construction of a weather station provides students with an opportunity to get up close and personal with science. There are significant differences in the functional requirements of weather stations across different educational stages. From stimulating children's curiosity about nature in kindergarten, to guiding students to have a preliminary understanding of meteorological knowledge in primary school, to assisting students in exploring the mysteries of meteorology in middle school, and finally to serving professional scientific research in universities, the requirements for the configuration of weather stations increase step by step. Next, I will introduce the suitable configuration plans of Fengtu's Campus Weather Station according to different educational stages.

Kindergarten - Fun Enlightenment Configuration

In the kindergarten stage, the main focus is on cultivating children's interest in natural phenomena. The configuration should be simple, easy to understand, safe, interesting, and incorporate elements of interactive experience.

Hardware Equipment

Simple Weather Station Set: It includes a temperature and humidity measuring meter and a wind direction and speed meter. The appearance can be designed in a cartoon style to stimulate children's curiosity.

Interactive Display Board: Through stickers, pictures, and other forms, it displays weather symbols and the corresponding natural phenomena, making it convenient for children to have an intuitive understanding of the weather.

Meteorological Broadcasting Toy: It simulates the meteorological broadcasting scene, allowing children to role-play and enhancing the interactive experience.

Primary School - Basic Popular Science Configuration

In primary school, students start to systematically learn scientific knowledge. The configuration should focus on the systematicness of knowledge and the cultivation of practical hands-on abilities.

Hardware Equipment

FT-XQ2 Campus Weather Station: It can monitor parameters such as wind direction, wind speed, rainfall, air temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, and ultraviolet radiation in real time. It is equipped with a 1m × 0.5m LED screen to display the data intuitively.

Manual Observation Instruments: It is equipped with dry and wet bulb thermometers, fiberglass louver boxes, tipping bucket rain gauges, etc., enabling students to participate in manual meteorological observations and enhancing their hands-on abilities.

Set up a meteorological popular science display board to showcase meteorological knowledge, the laws of weather changes, and the coping methods for meteorological disasters.

Middle School - Exploratory Research Configuration

Middle school students have a certain scientific inquiry ability. The configuration should meet their needs for in-depth research on meteorological science and cultivate their scientific thinking and innovative abilities.

Multifunctional Meteorological Monitoring Station: On the basis of the FT-XQ2 campus weather station, sensors such as soil temperature and humidity, light intensity, and carbon dioxide are added to broaden the monitoring dimensions.

Supporting professional data acquisition software is provided, which supports real-time data acquisition, storage, and analysis, helping students draw meteorological data charts and analyze the trends of meteorological changes.

Build a standard meteorological observation field and install various meteorological instruments, allowing students to conduct meteorological observations in a standardized environment.

University - Professional Scientific Research Configuration

In the university stage, more emphasis is placed on scientific research and practical applications. The configuration should meet the professional meteorological observation standards and the needs of scientific research projects and teaching practices.

High-precision Weather Station: Equipped with more accurate meteorological sensors, such as ultrasonic wind direction and speed meters, high-precision radiation sensors, etc., to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data.

Adopt wireless communication technologies such as GPRS, 4G/5G, etc. to achieve remote transmission and real-time monitoring of meteorological data, making it convenient for teachers and students to obtain data anytime and anywhere.

Be equipped with professional meteorological data analysis software, which supports functions such as multivariate statistical analysis and numerical simulation, providing data support for scientific research projects.

In conclusion, from the fun-filled kindergarten weather station to the university weather station that supports professional scientific research, the series of configuration plans created by Fengtu fully meet the teaching and scientific research needs of each stage.
