On the graph below, there are 3 traces, red, blue, and green, that represent the peak wind, average wind, and slowest wind during each minute in which the wind is measured. The farther apart the traces are, the more gusty the conditions are. The middle graph below is the wind direction
The red trace above represents the cumulative rainfall. If it hasn’t rained, then the red trace is just a straight line along the bottom.

About this Image Monitoring Station: This station is located on top of the Life Guard Hut at Jensen Beach, just north of the Holiday Inn near Stuart, Fl in Martin County (central Florida on the east coast). It consists of an Olympus SP500, 6 Mega Pixel digital camera controlled by custom software running under Windows XP. In addition, there is a Sony Block low light level, low noise video camera with integrated 18x optical zoom. Both cameras are placed inside an environmentally protected housing on top of a precision pan/tilt unit made by Conway. A water pump, reservoir and windshield wiper system clean the glass under program control. The software controls many functions including pan/tilt positioning, camera zoom, imaging stitching, and uploads images and complete web pages to various ftp sites…all under automatically and unattended. For more information, see Erdman Video Systems. |
