About this project
Build an automated rainfall measurement system using tipping bucket mechanism and reed switch sensor with Arduino Uno. Measure rainfall intensity (mm/hr), cumulative daily rainfall (mm), and classify rainfall events (light, moderate, heavy, very heavy) per IMD standards. Display real-time data on 20x4 LCD with intensity bar graph visualization. Essential for stormwater drainage design, flood forecasting, and hydrological studies per IS 4880 specifications.
