Zondar

High-Level Project Summary

Our project were made for solve one question, how accurate is the climate in Argentina. For do it we had to investigate on where to see the current information and how they obtain it. All that were made by talking with a pilot that explain us that the climate is obtain by using satelites that get all the data, but with one problem, the wind that is calculated seen the movement of the clouds, and we know that no always we find clouds so this is a problem that has no solution right now.Here is where Zondar comes, with the objective of getting that data and the rest including information about the air's purity and pictures from the sky. A useful solution for enterplices and people

Detailed Project Description

What problem are we going to solve?

One of the main problems for airlines when putting an airplane in the sky is the weather. So questions can arise such as "Do the pilots know the weather?" "How accurate is the weather today?". Nowadays this data is provided by satellites but how accurate is it?, and this is where one of the problems lies, and it is that not much; satellites obtain this information, especially the wind, seeing the movement of clouds, but if there are no clouds, an approximate is made that can present unforeseen events for pilots, such as not being able to land due to an unexpected weather change or 300 km/h winds.

We are going to find out if this problem exists and if it can be solved.

The probe would be propelled with a stratospheric balloon to climb to an altitude of 1000 meters, pushed by the wind, and this movement would be monitored in order to calculate the winds accurately.

This solution would not only benefit these companies, but also the people who travel by plane, since there would be less possibility of not being able to land, landing on another runway due to an emergency or having a longer flight than estimated.

We use Figma, Visual Studio Code, Git, Github, Tinkercard and IDE Arduino


What data will we measure and how?

In the test probe we seek to measure:





  • carbon monoxide (using the MQ-7)
  • Its displacement (using the Gy-neo6mv2 GPS module)
  • Aerial imaging with a camera
  • Atmospheric pressure
  • Temperature
  • Humidity
  • The information will be stored in a SD memory inside the device.

Space Agency Data

For us project we use references from the national meteorological service of Argentina.

Site: https://www.smn.gob.ar/

Inside it we went to services and aeronautical service. For see the references about the pilots.

Watching WINDEP and satelital pictures we got all the information we are going to use for the comparation between the prob and the satelite.

Hackathon Journey

OUR EXPERIENCE

With this new experience, we were able to apply our knowledge for a good cause. We learned to work as a team, deepen our knowledge, etc. What inspired us to choose this challenge was the idea that our project can go further and that people can get to know us. Our team was able to solve the challenges with the help of the people in charge and the same project and the support of each area involved. We want to thank our computer teachers who have been supporting us all this time, as well as the people in the competition who were very attentive.
