GIS

I downloaded the AmbientWeather app on smartphone and could connect to WIFI on the console.

Tried with AmbientWeather.net, but:

• our account is old and we could not recover the password - doesn't matter much as ew don't have any active WS there anymore
• the WS was still registered and AmbientWeather.net refused to assign it to another account.

• Account email address changed to avcsrgeomatics@gmail.com (credentials hold by Giulio)
• Created on the web site: ID:IAUROV8,KEY:mKnHQ0Ex

See https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/IAUROV8
It's not clear which WS the console is connected to - maybe the old one on the roof actually?
I also reset the rain total counter on the console; as it showed the upper limit (6000) so it is now 0.

@selvarani: that's fine, no need to add more pictures of the console, the data is available here: https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/IAUROV8

Gisaf stopped reading last night. Error log indicates it is probably related to https://github.com/agronholm/apscheduler/issues/803 (bug in early version of apscheduler 4).

Updating apscheduler, then i'll check if this solves the issue:

pdm update apscheduler

For information, i found a web page telling more about the device: https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=40730.0

It seems that the hardware is OEM manufactured by a Chinese company called FineOffset, see https://www.foshk.com/.

Just found this project: https://github.com/bachya/ecowitt2mqtt

The goal would be to set up the WS send data to our server directly, instead of depending on cloud services (AmbientWeather or WeatherUndergroud). For example right now, it seems there's a network or power supply issue since last night so the WS data for that time is lost.

I think it's worth giving it a shot.

Got the WS send data to the local server, and data published to mqtt (see #15276).

Next: Gisaf reactor to listen to the ecowitt2mqtt_local channel and save to the DB.

I added the remaining piece that saves the WS data using this new method, not using any cloud service (AmbientWeather or WUnderground):

Weather station -> console -> local server: [ecowitt2mqtt -> mqtt -> gisaf reactor -> database]

Data like temperature, pressure seems ok (eg. check https://gis.avcsr.org/measures/avsm_misc.weather_station/2).

Waiting for rain to come to validate for the rainfall sensor and resolve this ticket.

I also updated the notebook which creates the "widget" which shows the latest rainfall (as displayed on the home page): it now uses that new weather station.
