Circuit Diagram

Design in Fritzing 

In this circuit,I am using SIM900A module but you can also use SIM800L module.I am using SIM900A module due to following features.

• Best suited for GSM based Microcontroller Projects (better than SIM300 and other GSM Modems)
• Option for connecting MIC and SPEAKER directly to GSM MODEM for calls (LINE IN also available)
• Compatible with ARDUINO, RASPBERRY PI, ARM, AVR, PIC, 8051, etc. - Can also be directly connected to computer via Serial Port (Use GSM Tester or write your own Software)
• Supports communication through RS232 with DB9 Connector, TTL Pins & I2C Pins
• CALL SMS GPRS facility - MIC input, LINE input & SPEAKER output pins.

How to make a weather monitoring system using Google Firebase.

In this blog, I will explain you how to monitor weather and send the data to google firebase.

Components Required

1. Nodemcu(ESP8266)

2. DHT11/22 Sensor

3. Breadboard

4. Google Firebase Account

5. Jumper Wires

Circuit Diagram:

Connection 
DHT11              Nodemcu

 Gnd---------------Gnd
  Vcc---------------Vcc
  Data--------------D4

What is DHT11 Sensor?

DHT11 Temperature & Humidity Sensor features a temperature & humidity sensor complex with a calibrated digital signal output. By using the exclusive digital-signal-acquisition technique and temperature & humidity sensing technology, it ensures high reliability and excellent long-term stability. This sensor includes a resistive-type humidity measurement component and an NTC temperature measurement component, and connects to a highperformance 8-bit microcontroller, offering excellent quality, fast response, anti-interference ability and cost-effectiveness.


Google Firebase Setup
Firebase provides a realtime database and backend as a service. The service provides application developers an API that allows application data to be synchronized across clients and stored on Firebase's cloud. The company provides client libraries that enable integration with Android, iOS, JavaScript, Java, Objective-C, Swift and Node.js applications. The database is also accessible through a REST API and bindings for several JavaScript frameworks such as AngularJS, React, Ember.js and Backbone.js. The REST API uses the Server-Sent Events protocol, which is an API for creating HTTP connections for receiving push notifications from a server. Developers using the realtime database can secure their data by using the company's server-side-enforced security rules.

Step1 Make a account in google firebase and login .

Step2 Add a project with name.

Step3 Go to project overview then users and premissions.

Step4 Go to data base secret and then copy api key.

Step5 Go to database and change cloud firestore to realtime database.
