R. Scott Coppersmith is developing an alternate to disposable weather balloons using drones. Uses an Adafruit BME688 – Temperature, Humidity, Pressure and Gas Sensor – STEMMA QT, details on Hackster.io:
Discarded weather balloons and radiosonde equipment can be hazardous to wildlife and the environment. We will use a quadcopter/drone as a reusable vehicle for the radiosonde equipment while taking meteorological data.
We will build a platform to carry an iMet-4 radiosonde on the Hovergames quadcopter, and interface the telemetry to extract the required data.
Our solution will use the drone to replace the rubber weather balloon thus making the system reusable and non-polluting.

If you’ve wanted to display sensor readings on your device running WipperSnapper, you’re in luck! This guide will walk you through the process of building a device that reads environmental measurements and displays them on an OLED.
The process for setting up and using a display on a development board running WipperSnapper is simple, there is no coding or soldering – you just click!
We deliver the latest news, products and more from the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), quadcopter and drone communities. Drones can be used for video & photography (dronies), civil applications, policing, farming, firefighting, military and non-military security work, such as surveillance of pipelines.
