Weather stations for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi

For real-time meteorological data at the XXII Winter Olympic and XI Winter Paralympic Games in Sochi from February–March 2014, 29 specialized automatic meteorological stations (AMS) were installed in the areas close to the Olympic sport venues from 2010-2013. This was in addition to the regular observation network that provided data for the weather now-casting system supplied and operated by MeteoExpert. To measure the amount of liquid, solid and mixed type precipitation, ten OTT Pluvio² all-weather precipitation gauges were installed by engineers of IRAM, a partner company of MeteoExpert. Each precipitation gauge was connected to the logger of a corresponding weather station MAWS301 (produced by Vaisala).
