Yuktix python library to get Bangalore weather network data

By -

Here we are releasing our python library for accessing Yuktix public API. This release is limited to weather network and public API only.

You can access the public API doc from here http://www.yuktix.com/m/aws/media/yuktix-public-api.pdf . Yuktix public API are REST API and of course you can write a client in your favourite language. All you need is your public API access key that you can see on your account | profile page.


This is a wrapper built using Request library (http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/) and tested with Python 2.7.11. The full code is available as Gist right now. I will do better packaging and check it in a Github repo as well. I know all about API abuse. we are a small team and the only time I get to work on such stuff is between 12:00-3 AM so please play nice!

We record temperature data across the city and here we show graphs from two stations, one inHSR Layout and another in Jayanagar 4th Block.  Raw data from more stations is attached for intrepid folks. We show the trend for minimum, maximum and average temperature plotted across days in march 2015 vs. march 2016. First, the Jayanagar station. Both the minimum temperature as well as Maximum has gone up so no cheating averages here. The days were actually hotter on the whole! Maybe I will plot raw data across too instead of aggregates just to get the kicks. Interesting data is that first half of march was lot hotter compared to second half.  Last 5 days the temperatures actually come closer together. The spread in average is a good deal of 3-4 degrees centigrade. Now the HSR station Look at the max and min. here too! The spread is 5-6 degrees more than the last year! Should we say that HSR in first half of march in 2016 was 5 degrees hotter than 2015?  As

Greenhouse Remote Monitoring  Remote monitoring , a tool or a service generally used by people sitting some where far away from a place where they have installed their instruments and they want to have a close look to the changing parameters of that place. In this era of development when people are doing a lot of work in wireless communication, low power sensor nodes, WSN(wireless sensor networks), 3G-4G networks, IOT and M2M, it has given a boost to remote monitoring. Some basic examples of remote monitoring Vehicle tracking system Ware house monitoring - Measuring the variables of greenhouse. Patient Monitoring. So when we talk about greenhouse remote monitoring, lets first see what happen now days in a typical greenhouse, taking a example of Rose Greenhouse.  In a typical rose greenhouse, generally people use manual thermometer and RH meter which measure real time humidity and moisture existing there and note it down in a copy or register date wise.

Yuktix Smart Greenhouse Solution - Effectiveness and ROI Agriculture is backbone of any country and India rank 2nd in farm output, 50% of total workforce is in Agriculture and it add up 13.7% in India GDP. Still Agriculture is demographically the broadest economy sector and play a significant role in overall socio-economic fabric of India. With increasing burden of population, the pressure on land producing more output have increased and so as the pressure on the natural resources. In scenario like this, precision agriculture play a important role. And when the same precision agriculture is implemented in a confined area with controller environment, that practice is termed as greenhouse cultivation. So if i have to explain what Greenhouse cultivation is in simple words, it is "cultivation of vegetation in controlled environment, providing them artificial environment that facilitate their growth". Variable like Temperature, humidity, amount of light, CO2, soil moisture,
