Welcome to the
windTalker Homepage
A windTalker is an automatic, remote weather station, specifically
designed to relay wind and weather information to subscribers or the
general public via phone.

Weather data is captured using a 1-Wire weather station system and
then processed and stored using a microcontroller. A mobile phone
module is connected to the microcontroller and users can receive up to
the minute wind and weather information by logging into the relavent
web page

The weather information is typically used by hill walkers, climbers and
paraglider pilots etc.

Much effort goes into ensuring the wind and weather information
supplied is completely accurate, however there is no guarantee that it is
correct. Paraglider and hanglider pilots should use their own judgement
when deciding if it is safe to fly.
