As testimony to the Davis Vantage Vue Weather station’s overall toughness and reliability, it is the weather station of choice for the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park.

On a recent trip, a keen-eyed Instrument Choice Scientist spotted several Davis Vantage Vue weather stations dotted around the base of the world’s largest monolith. Uluru is in the semi-arid zone of Central Australia. Conditions are extreme, rainfall is difficult to predict, and the seasons are diverse – sweltering summers and bitterly cold winter nights.
