Météocam

Météocam and camera weather is terms of the jargon of the initiates who indicate Caméra S filming a landscape and his sky and relaying the weather parameters usual: the Temperature, the force and direction of the Wind, the hygroscopy, the atmospheric pressure…

The météocams equip more and more the urban tourist sites, mountain dwellers, littorals or. These traditional video cameras (for diffusion on networks of television) or Webcam S (for diffusion on Internet, generally via the Web) are often Panoramique S.

Mode of diffusion

Television

Austrian television channel TW 1 diffused in light (free) by the satellite Astra is entirely devoted to this topic.

Web

One finds météocams made up of webcams but it often acts of reactualized photographs and without animation.

The sites of which the persons in charge wished to inform of the prospective customers install some more and more frequently. They are for example take-off runways of Parapente, of sites of Saut to the rubber band, of tracks of Ski or circuits VTT. The primary connections (to the Web server) are often of radio operator type 2,4 GHz (Caméra without wire or bridge (point-to-point) transmitting Wifi ) since the Internet often does not reach the isolated sites, especially in altitude.

Many networks of météocams amateurs or professionals exist in Europe.
