Data logger is a broad term that may refer to any device that stores sensor measurement data. Many smart sensors integrate on-board data logging electronics. However, for the purposes of environmental data logging, systems typically include dedicated data logger units that can interface with multiple sensor types and, in many cases, transmit the data. Data […]
The seemingly simple question of, “how do I get my data?” can be complicated to answer, so we explore why wireless water quality monitoring options are so important to users, what today’s monitoring options look like, and the solutions the technology presents for users.
Deployment locations for data buoys are often remote. Wireless communication supports environmental monitoring and data collection from buoys in real-time.
An energy company is gathering a comprehensive water quality dataset along the Ohio River at a hydropower station on the Cannelton Dam.
Gulfport Energy is working to monitor streams and rivers near hydraulic fracturing operations to ensure the aquatic life isn’t negatively impacted.
Managers at LimnoTech collaborated with NexSens Technology to equip vital hydropower areas with water level sensors and cellular data loggers.
A NexSens Data Buoy provides scientists at Colby College with info on lake health like oxygen dynamics, temperature stratification and productivity.
The Ohio DNR’s Division of Wildlife Sandusky Fish Research Unit is exploring whether walleye spawns are affected by lake currents.
