Sensor Integration Progress Report (11/2005)

Below is a list of ROADNet's 16 currently supported data loggers (likely dated moments after it was compliled, so check with ROADNet staff for the latest list). In addition to these sensors, Boulder Real-Time Technologies (BRTT) and the Antelope Users Open-Source CVS repository both provide additional interfaces to other data loggers such as the Quanterra Q330 or the Handar data logger.

  • Beeline GPS
  • Campbell Data Logger - primarily used as a high grade met station, but also works for a variety of other uses due to the data loggers flexible design.
  • Dan Cayan's Data Logger
  • Composite Bridge Project - National Instruments Data Logger
  • CODAR - HF ocean surface radar www.codaros.com
  • Davis Met Stations (Vantage series) - a medium grade met station
  • ICE9 DataLogger - used primarily for long-base laser strain meters
  • General Image Acquisition - web cameras such as 3 Mega-pixel iqeye or NTSC quality axis video servers
  • Ricoh Image Acquisition - 3 Mega-Pixel Ricoh point and shoot camera.
  • Ashtech - we support California Spatial Reference Center (CSRC) GPS receivers. We provide raw data transport via ORB (RTCM and MBEN formats)
  • CSRC Processed Output: we distribute results from differential GPS receivers after they are processed by the California Spatial Reference Center (CSRC) (via ryo2orb).
  • NMEA formatted data loggers - via NMEA to orb, for example to retrieve GPS information about R/V Revelle current location.
  • Oregon Scientific Data Logger (WM-918) - this is a consumer grade (low grade) met station. We support the data, but do not recommend it for future installations since it does not have the ability to store samples during a network outage.
  • SeaBird 39 - water temperature probe - we currently support basic data retrieval. Future efforts on this will center around changes in data retrieval that will better support on-going research projects at SIO.
  • Solinst Level-logger - this measures water temp and/or conductivity. We have support for this device but we do not have periodic IP access to a field deployed instrument.
  • ORBstatus - each object ring buffer running antelope can run this software to collect data about the local orb environment. This information can then be combined downstream to automatically create topologies and to determine optimal routing. For an example display see: mercali.ucsd.edu/orbtopo.cgi
