Abstract: In today’s world of ‘Data at Finger Tips’, sensors have become ubiquitous, their applications have become numerous and this data is required round the clock and on-the-go. The data picked up by the sensors is delivered to end-user in real time by IoT and further utilised for real time reports, off-line analysis and data aggregation. This review paper focuses on the different types of IoT sensors used for monitoring of atmospheric parameters. Sensors aided by wireless networking are the backbone of nowcasting and prevailing trends at any given area. IoT sensors data combined with satellite data and operational models enhance accuracy and expedite weather predictions. IoT data enable validation and updating of atmospheric depression models. Comprehensive study of sensors has been carried out and consolidated in this paper for ready reference by all stakeholders-Meteorological department, pollution control board, Non-destructive testing and evaluation of corrosive elements in atmosphere, farmers and horticulturists, to name a few.
