Wireless data transfer between two pi’s

[descoward]

I am in the process of building a weather station with all the electronics and processing using a pi3 in my shed. I have it in mind to have a second pi indoors that will display real-time weather data from my station. I have searched the forum for an easy solution but have failed to find anything that makes sense (to me!).

All I need to do is periodically wirelessly transmit a string of data from the shed pi to my indoors pi.

Can anybody please point me in the right direction as to what type of wireless equipment and protocol I should use? The distance between pi’s is maximum 15 metres

Thanks.

WiFi should work over that distance.

MQTT is the ideal protocol for Internet of Things devices like weather station sensors.

Thanks Dougie, I’m going to try Wi-fi and MQQT.
