COMMUNICATIONS AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS IN HYDROMETEOROLOGY
In hydrometeorology, communications and telecommunications -are important in the transmission, storage, processing and distribution of meteorological and hydrological data. This field requires the use of modern technologies for weather forecasting, water management and emergency preparedness.
Main directions
1. Collection and transmission of meteorological data
Hydrometeorological stations regularly monitor weather conditions, temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed and other parameters. This information is transmitted to central servers through telecommunication networks.
2. Communication through satellites
Satellites play a major role in hydrometeorology. They transmit a wide range of data needed to monitor weather, detect cloud movements, and analyze global climate change.
3. Radio signals and radars
o Receiving data from meteorological devices using radio signals.
o Radar technologies allow real-time monitoring of events such as rain, snow, and storms.
4. Networked communication systems
Network technologies are used to transmit hydrometeorological data from one region to another. These include internet protocols, wired and wireless communications.
5. Cloud technologies
Cloud technologies are widely used in the storage and processing of collected data. This method allows data to be delivered to many users quickly and securely.
Advantages of communication and telecommunication
• Speed: Fast data delivery helps make weather forecasts more accurate.
• Wide coverage: Enables information exchange at a regional or global level.
• Stability: Telecommunication systems enable stable operation in different weather conditions.
Practical application
• Emergency services: Early detection of storms, floods or other dangerous natural phenomena and notification to the population.
• Agriculture: Crop irrigation and crop planning based on weather data.
• Transportation: Providing weather information for aviation and marine transportation.
