Data Buoy collects meteorological data includes wind speed, wind direction, air temperature, humidity, air pressure, solar radiation, sea surface temperature, 500 meters water temperature profile of the upper oceansingle-point current velocity information. All data transmits via iridium satellite network in near-real time.

Due to the special environment, the communication technology commonly used on land cannot be used in the ocean. Only the satellite communication network can instantly return the observation data. The system integrates sensor datatransmits via satellite network. Related technologies can extend the development of other ocean observing systems.

The application target is for researchweather forecasting operational organization, providing the necessary real-time ocean observation data for academic researchforecasting modes.
