A rain gauge device comprises a water collector configured to receive water, the rain gauge device being movable between a water collection position and an emptying position, a measuring means 106 configured to measure a parameter representative of a weight measurement, and a control unit configured to use the measuring means to perform a plurality of weight measurements.

A device for monitoring evaporation capacity of a water surface evaporator in a process includes a water surface evaporator and a rain collector, the rain collector and the water surface evaporator having a same size of orifice area, height, and contour profile of a monitoring device. One side of the water surface evaporator is connected with a first measuring well through a pipeline, and another side of the water surface evaporator is connected with a first electromagnetic flowmeter, a water supplementing electromagnetic valve and an overflow electromagnetic valve through a water pipe. The water supplementing electromagnetic valve is connected with a water supplementing barrel through a water supplementing pipe. A water collecting barrel is installed below the special rain collector. A second magnetostrictive water level meter, a starting drainage switch and a stopping drainage switch are installed in the second measuring well.

A system gathers data from a plurality of sources across a wide geographic region, and produces from the gathered information output to a user, which output indicates to the user factors that may influence supply of product to, and/or operation of, a supply chain. Illustrative embodiments are able to determine that data in a previously received dataset has been changed by its corresponding data source, and subsequently update a corresponding data record maintained by the system. Illustrative embodiments train and employ one or more neural networks to identify anomalies in large datasets, and in some embodiments to predict the impact of various factors on crop production.

Systems, methods, and devices are provided for monitoring precipitation. An example rain gauge device for use in such monitoring generally includes a first basin including at least one outlet for forming and releasing droplets of moisture, and at least two electrical contacts disposed proximate to the at least one outlet. A closed circuit is formed between the at least two electrical contacts when a droplet of moisture, released by the at least one outlet, contacts the at least two electrical contacts. The rain gauge device then also includes a processor communicatively coupled to the at least two electrical contacts. The processor is configured to determine presence of a moisture event based on the closed circuit formed by the droplet and the at least two electrical contacts and, in response to the determination, transmit an indication of the moisture event to a computing device.
