ThingSpeak Farm Monitor
Sensors · Board: ESP8266 · Day 46 of 100
Soil and weather data from the ESP8266 flow into ThingSpeak cloud charts. Remote farm sensing with free cloud logging.
How it works
Soil and weather readings leave the ESP8266 as HTTP requests to the ThingSpeak API, which stores each value against a timestamp. ThingSpeak then renders the history as charts you can check from anywhere. The field stays in the field; the data lives in the cloud.
What you'll learn
- REST API data logging
- Cloud charting
- Timestamped telemetry
- Remote agricultural sensing
