We consider a topology of a distributed communication network of weather stations and its hardware configuration. The operability criteria for the considered network are formulated. The theoretical foundations for optimizing the acquisition of spare parts, tools and accessories (SPTA) for distributed systems are considered. An algorithm for SPTA optimization for distributed systems has been developed. Optimization of the SPTA acquisition for the hardware components of the distributed communication network of 24 weather stations was carried out. The acquisition options are proposed, taking into account various criteria. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
