## Weatherstation setup with ESP8266, and BME280 ### first the facts: I didnt write this code. I altered existing code with a link to author and original code in the .ino weatherstation coding for: * esp8266 * BME280 sensor This weatherstation will connect to a wifi network, then start a webserver, and serve up the data it collects. The DHT11 sensor provides temperature and humidity. The BME280 sensor provides temperature, barometric pressure, and altitude. On the BME sensor altitude is reckoned using barometric pressure and sealevel pressure - i didnt want to mess with that because my sensors will be distrubuted. Because of that I set altitude as a contant for the location im setting up for. photo/schematic will be posted soon ![weatherstation pinouts esp8266MOD and bme280](http://dkc-hvac.com/images/projects/esp8266MOD-pins-from-underside.jpg) the setup is pretty simple ### I am using an esp8266-MOD the bme280 sensor is connected like this: * sensor + ---> esp 3.3v * sensor gnd ---> esp gnd * sensor SCL ---> esp SCL (d1/gpio 5) * sensor SDA ---> esp SDA (d2/gpio 4) download the .ino file and alter to your specification
