Tks Gary!

For now, I'm using a fileparser driver. To write this file, I'm using a C
program that I'm writting. This program reads from BMP280 and DHT22.....I'm
just waiting other parts to arrive so I can build other sensors. I'm
planing to read UV (just waiting AD conversor), light intensity and wind
speed/rain gauge and wind direction, all from ebay and software custom-made
(since sensors will be direct attached to my Raspberry Pi, no controller or
commercial controller).

I'll try to evaluate my error and make some kind of formula.

In the future (after all parts done), I'm planing to make my custom driver
read direct from my C program instead of using text file/parser.
