Villages are the backbone of India economy. In planning and development process village should be at the centre. Village information system (VIS) is a micro level study which may helpful to planners, policy makers and administrators in planning and decision making process. It is seen that may planning gets fail due to insufficient and non availability of data. The main objective of this study is to provide weather dissemination, operation, maintenance, sustainable development and modernization of 19-"Village Information Systems" (VIS) operational over Kadapa and Nellore districts. One of the important objectives of this pilot project is to provide location specific information to farmers, fishermen (Nellore), rural women, students and children on agriculture, irrigation, education, nutrition, healthcare vocation etc. Using these facilities, the volunteers are able to create query, print personal documents, weather data and important agricultural interactive maps for the benefit of villagers. Two Automatic Weather Stations (AWS) are installed to monitor two (wet over Nellore and dry over Kadapa region) divergent climatic zones in a very close range of about 150 km with distinctive and varying weather characteristics such as temperature, humidity, pressure, rainfall and etc. A study has been made to calibrate, evaluate and assess the performance of two AWS. In addition, we are disseminating meteorological forecast data to the VIS through e-mail and severe weather information through SMS.
