TOTP - a new way of authorization in the Project A new TOTP authorization method has been added to the project, completely independent of external authorization services and without SMS, based on codes that change every 30 seconds. Highly recommended for those who constantly forget their passwords! To use this method, you need to install the Google Authenticator application on your smartphone, which is available in GooglePlay and AppStore, then scan the QR code in this application on the Project website in the Profile \ Member Profile \ Google Authenticator section. After adding your account to Authenticator, to authorize on the project website or in its applications, you should use your login (or email) in the Project and the temporary code displayed in Authenticator at the moment. This authorization method is widely used in many international services (and not only from Google) due to its autonomy, which does not require an Internet connection, it works very stably.

| 21.12.2021. Pre-moderation of REST API apps On the fact of massive complaints about the illegal use of project data on third-party resources, an audit was conducted on the use of our data and 145 application keys were blocked, most of them were created by the weather service #rp5 #rp5. This sad fact forced us to take extreme measures and introduce pre-moderation of access to other people's public data through our REST API for all applications. Those. if you request through our API not only the data of your sensors, but also those of others, be sure to contact our technical support on the project website (REST API category) with an indication for what purposes you need access and to what extent to other people's public data. For applications in our Soft catalog, created for users of our project, we have already allocated the necessary limits, for the rest it has become equal to 1. See Profile \ My Apps List \ PubsLimit. For commercial services, access to our API is only possible on a paid basis, since we plan to share the received profit with the owners of weather stations that are on the list of interest for these services.

| 30.09.2021. Universal but problematic sensor BME280 Several features of the BME280 Interface: i2c Power supply of the chip: 1.7...3.6V Allows you to measure temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure. It is not recommended to purchase at a price above $2.5-4 per piece, As well as the entire BME series, it is recommended to use indoors. Operating range: -40...+85°C Price: 9 USD The service life is more than one year (indoors). With frequent measurements, a small internal heating of 1-2°C is possible. When used outdoors, most of them live no more than 1 year. Different sensor samples "die" in different ways. At the current price, it is not advisable to purchase a sensor. Two sensors can be used as an alternative configuration: BMP280 + AHT10, BMP280 + SHT31 (recommended). Details in the Project's sensor knowledge base (https://narodmon.com/#!kbsens1). And what can you tell us about your sensors? You can leave your feedback and opinions in the form of a survey (http://forms.gle/5BLcq8yeZ7apPCKt8). Bonuses from the Project are provided for detailed descriptions and experience of use. More info at vk.com |

Changes in sensors rating accounting From September 12, the calculation of the rating of the sensors will be changed based on the assessments of the participants and moderators of the project, namely: - the reset of the rating is canceled when the sensor is republished; - a "life span" is introduced for such assessments with a duration of 3 months (both positive and negative). P.S. Reason for revision: more frequent cases of changes in the quality of meteorological data and stability of work over time. More info at vk.com |
