2 Abstract : Weather monitoring has very high impact on modern era; it has given thousand years agriculture a new dimension and made it more efficient and productive, modern day aircrafts cannot takeoff or land without having weather information. On other hand pollution can significantly affect quality of our life and endanger human with chorionic diseases which increase mortality in the region. We are based in Yanbu Industrial City, Saudi Arabia, which is one the largest industrial city of the country. There are hundreds of petrochemical industries and oil refineries located in this city and hence produces lot of air and water pollution which severely affecting the weather and environmental conditions of the city and the surroundings. By developing Weather station and pollution monitoring system we can offer community service to the residents of Yanbu city by providing them weather and pollution updates and alerts. Our system collects information from different sensors through NI Wireless sensor network, analyzes this data send information to local community through LabVIEW web application, NI data dashboard for mobile devices and SMS. Some of the benefits for local community are listed below; 1. Our system can send high air pollution alerts to residents to wear masks and turn their ac to room circulation to protect them. 2. Our system can guide farmers to plan their irrigation schedule. 3. By weather forecasting, our system can help the residents to plan their outdoor activities or travelling. 4. By careful weather data analyzing, suitable locations or seasons could be identified for wind turbines and solar panels. 5. Researchers/teachers can utilize the acquired weather or pollution data in their advance research or to develop better understanding in this field among the students. 6. It can provide information to civil contractor to plan their work timeline by predicting weather. 7. It can send bad weather alerts to fishermen to plan their fishing activities.

3 SYSTEM LEVEL BLOCK DIAGRAM

4 Main components of system We have seleced following NI components based on following reasons: NI 9791 WSN Gateway Selected as best product in 2010 and got Engineer choise award, it act as data gateway for weather and pullotion data. It key features are listed as; Coordinates communication between distributed WSN measurement nodes and host controller 2.4 GHz, IEEE radio to communicate with WSN measurement nodes 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet port for flexible connectivity to Windows or LabVIEW Real-Time host controllers NI-WSN software provides easy network configuration and data extraction Support for 8 WSN end nodes (star topology) or up to 36 WSN nodes (mesh topology) NI 3202 WSN Node Selected as best product in 2010 and got Engineer choise award, it act as wireless node for weather and pullotion sensors which have analog outputs. It key features are listed as; Programmable with the NI LabVIEW Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) Module Pioneer Customize node to extend battery life, increase performance, and perform local control and analysis Up to 3-year battery life Four analog input channels with selectable input ranges: ±0.5, ±2, ±5, ±10 V Four DIO channels configurable for input, sinking or sourcing output, and value change detection NI 3212 WSN Node Selected as best product in 2010 and got Engineer choise award,it act as wireless node for temperature and digital sensor. It key features are listed as; Programmable with the NI LabVIEW Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) Module Pioneer Customize node to extend battery life, increase performance, and perform local control and analysis Up to 3-year battery life

5 Support for J, K, R, S, T, N, B, E thermocouple types Four DIO channels configurable for input, sinking, or sourcing output, and value change detection NI 3230 WSN Node (optional) It act as wireless node for sensor which have RS232 output. It has following features. Programmable, autonomous interface to serial sensors, instruments, and control boards Programmable with the NI LabVIEW Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) Module Deploy embedded code to create a local communication loop between the node and serial device One RS232 port and two digital I/O lines User-selectable baud rates, parity bits, stop bits, and flow control Comapct RIO 9118: (optional) It is used in the design for realtime controlling of external parameters.it high lighted features are; 8-slot reconfigurable embedded chassis that accepts any CompactRIO I/O module Xilinx Virtex-5 reconfigurable I/O (RIO) FPGA core for ultimate processing power Ability to automatically synthesize custom control and signal processing circuitry using LabVIEW NI Data dashboard: With the Data Dashboard for LabVIEW app, We can make portable view of Weather and pollution application. The app displays the values of network-published shared variables and/or Web services on charts, gauges, text indicators, and LEDs. LabVIEW 2012 and toolkits. LabVIEW is graphical programming language used to develop variour types of applications. All module of our software will use LabVIEW 2012 and its tool kits.
