The state-of-the-art and reliable indigenous ARS (Automatic Rain Gauge Station) is most suited for sev-

eral applications such as Weather Monitoring, Flood Monitoring & Control, Pollution Monitoring, Irrigation

scheduling, Water management, Transport, Defense, Non-conventional energy etc. Major users of this

technology for reliable and accurate data collection include IMD, IITM, NCMRWF, ISRO, DRDO, Airport

Authority, Army, Air Force, Indian Navy, Coast Guard, Ocean Development, Research institutions, Media,

Agriculture Universities etc.

ARS is a portable equipment to be carried to the field or to be use as a permanent station, to measure

rain fall data. Tipping Bucket is used as Rain Sensor to measure rain in ARS.

The ARS is designed as a very compact, modular, rugged, powerful and low-cost system and housed in

a portable, self-contained package. ARS consists of compact Data Logger, Tipping Bucket Rain Sensor

(Tipping Bucket), GSM/GPRS Modem, Solar Battery Charger, Solar Panel and Battery.

Minimum power requirements allow extended field use from a DC voltage source. Low power consump-

tion and smart power management is a feature of the system to utilize minimum operating power re-

sources. Precision meteorological sensor with long-term stability is used in Automatic Rain Station.

ARS stores rain data into its FLASH based nonvolatile local memory. Measured data is transmitted to

central station through GSM/GPRS Modem. ARS is provided with facility to take data backup into USB

Pen Drive/PC. Application software is provided to generate reports for further analysis. The Data Logger,

power Supply and battery are housed in a weatherproof enclosure. This ARS operates on a Single 12V

rechargeable SMF battery, which is charged by a solar panel.
