Citizen Science and Local Climate

For most of human history, knowledge of weather and climate came from careful, local observation: watching the sky, tracking seasonal changes, and recording patterns over time. Long before satellites and global models, understanding the environment depended on individuals paying close attention to the world around them and sharing what they learned.

Modern citizen science continues that tradition. Personal weather stations contribute fine-grained, hyper-local data that complements regional and global measurements. Taken together, these small observations help improve forecasting, document microclimates, and preserve long-term climate records that might otherwise be lost.

In that spirit, EnkiLabs now hosts a continuously operating personal weather station. The site exists to collect, archive, and share local weather data with high availability and long-term reliability, contributing a small but consistent stream of observations to the broader scientific and public record.

The data is currently shared with:
