The brief

We operate a network of around 300 automatic weather stations (AWS), mostly in the UK, but also a small number overseas.

The weather observation data collected at these sites is collated on a logger at site and then communicated every minute to our central cloud based system in real time.

Some sites have mains power, some operate on a 50W solar panel.

The majority of sites have 4G connectivity, but there are a subset that only have 2G connectivity at present.

We are looking for a supplier to provide a communications solution to allow for the real time transfer of our land surface observation data to our central cloud based collection system every minute in real time.
