: The aim of this project was to carry out measurements of climatic process occurring in the glasshouse. This article describes the method of measuring the glasshouse microclimate using the Control WEB 2000 software and the ADAM 4000 series input/output modules. Control WEB 2000 is a graphic development environment to create measuring and control applications. Data acquisition was made by using the ADAM modules of 4000 series which ensure the conversion of data and their transmission from the sensors to the control computer. Soil temperature, glasshouse indoor and outdoor air temperatures and air humidity were analyzed during two summer months. The measuring application is further extended by a proposal for microclimate control in the glasshouse.
