Lesson 31: Sensorless Remote Weather Station Project

This tutorial covers creating a sensorless weather station using the Raspberry Pi Pico W:

  • Connecting to WiFi: Import libraries and connect to WiFi using a WLAN object.

  • Fetching Weather Data: Use OpenWeatherMap API to get real-time weather data, requiring an API key.

  • Parsing JSON Data: Extract temperature, humidity, pressure, sunrise, and sunset times from the JSON response.

  • Code Explanation: Use urequests.get() to fetch data, convert Unix time, and adjust pressure units.

  • Displaying Weather Data: Print temperature, humidity, pressure, conditions, and wind speed.

  • Homework Assignment: Add a display and create a portable, battery-powered weather station.
