Mission
Real data, made readable.
Measurements collected locally are organised in a clear dashboard, making environmental conditions and changes understandable without losing sight of their source.
The project
Making the sky and environment above Ivrea readable.
Ivrea Observatory is an independent project that collects real data about the sky and environment above Ivrea and makes it understandable through local sensors, SkyCam imagery and digital services.
Local network
Sensors across the site.
Temperature, humidity, pressure, wind, rain, light and other signals work together to describe conditions above Ivrea as they change.
Images
SkyCam and recent shots.
The live view and sequence of recent images provide visual evidence alongside the numbers, connecting sensor data with real conditions.
Correlation
Data, images and real conditions.
The value lies not in any single reading, but in viewing different measurements together and comparing them with what the SkyCam shows.
Collect
Continuously acquire measurements and images from the local network.
Correlate
Connect environmental data, light levels and visual conditions.
Explain
Present the result through readable interfaces and clear context.
System
One local network, one shared picture.
Each component contributes to a fuller understanding of the sky and urban environment.
Weather
Atmospheric conditions measured by local sensors.
Light and sky
Ambient brightness and indicators connected with the sky.
Environmental events
Signals and variations that gain meaning when correlated.
SkyCam
Live images and recent shots as visual evidence.
Method
Iterative design and maintenance.
Hardware, software, interfaces and data quality evolve in small steps. Each iteration is tested on the real system and maintained over time.
Behind the project
Created and maintained by Riccardo Marino.
Ivrea Observatory is an independent, personal and experimental project conceived, developed and maintained by Riccardo Marino. The data is amateur, local and unofficial: it does not replace institutional weather sources, official alerts or professional instruments.
