A rain gauge is an artifact used in meteorological stations to help measure and collect precipitations that fall in a certain place. Precipitations are all hydrometeor tumbling to the earth from the climate, including precipitation, shower, hail, snow, and slush, mist, and so forth Downpour check networks give precipitation estimations a serious level of exactness at explicit areas at the same time, much of the time, the instruments are excessively inadequately conveyed to precisely catch the high spatial and worldly changeability of precipitation frameworks. Radar and satellite distant detecting of precipitation has become a suitable way to deal with address this issue adequately. Notwithstanding, among different wellsprings of vulnerabilities, the remote-sensing-based precipitation items are unavoidably influenced by testing blunders that should be assessed and described. While the rainfall is recorded by more than 3500 rain gauges set up by Indian Metrological Department and State Government. The precipitation value fluctuates from one spot to another and from one year to another. The annual average rainfall for the country is about 120cm and the country's Geographical area of km2 is equivalent to 3916 km3. The rainfall is measured by an instrument called a rain gauge. Rain gauge is also known as ombrometer or pluviometer. The rain gauge is classified as Recording and Non-Recording. The Standard non-recording rain gauge prescribed by the IMD is Symon's gauge. The details of the rain gauge can be obtained by Indian Standards IS 4986 2002. In our project, we have collected the data of rainfall from the year 2010-2020 in Mayiladuthurai District, Nagapattinam District, and Tanjore District. The details are to be studied then compared and analyzed in MS Excel and SPSS software. By using the collected rainfall data around 12 stations, we have prepared the chart. We have planned to set up the Standard Rain Gauge at AVC College of Engineering.
