Résumé
This paper shows the incidence of the most representative tornadoes since 1993 registered on the Atldntico's department, located in the north of Colombia; they have left thousands of material and economic losses. For this reason, it is proposed the design of a prototype system for monitoring meteorological variables associated with the occurrence of tornadoes in areas where they have occurred, to use the registered values in its study and following prediction. This system is based in a wireless sensor network, comprised of four sensor nodes and a sink node using the Waspmote platform and Xbee-PRO ZB (S2) modules for data acquisition and transmission respectively. The location of nodes and the stability of the data obtained by the different sensors in the system are also showed in the current work.
