Build a Weather Station with Elixir and Nerves

• rtl_433

  Program to decode radio transmissions from devices on the ISM bands (and other frequencies)

Depending on what you want to do you can get away with a RPi and RTL-SDR which are pretty widely available.

Most wireless weather stations use ISM bands, I used RTL_433[1] to pull the raw data and quite a few popular stations already have the format documented.

Combine with InfluxDB+Grafana+simple polling script/program and you can do a bunch of fun stuff with it. Have the whole thing wrapped with docker compose and just runs in the backgound.
