An important step towards nationwide drone deployment was the development of the Meteobase. It enables autonomous drone measurements and is also the drone’s “home” from which it takes off, lands and its battery is charged.
As a ground station, it serves as local support for the operation of the Meteodrones. It serves as a communication element between the pilot and the drone or works as a control element for autonomous flights of the drone. The Meteobase consists of a central computer that performs various tasks related to the operation, control and maintenance of the drone and the monitoring and logging of weather parameters at the site.
