| − | Here, we list several considerations for data acquisition and transmission.
| |
| − | * Acquisition Methods
| |
| − | ** manual
| |
| − | ** Wi-Fi
| |
| − | ** cellular
| |
| − | ** satellite
| |
| − | ** serial
| |
| − | * Bandwidth
| |
| − | ** bandwidth requirements ''(e.g., is 10Hz data needed?)''
| |
| − | ** where to get broadband POP?
| |
| − | ** ability of equipment to work with required bandwidth
| |
| − | * Line of sight (LOS)
| |
| − | ** environment, topography, and vegetation
| |
| − | ** LOS calculators
| |
| − | ** are repeaters required?
| |
| − | * Repeaters
| |
| − | ** ''See [[Sensor Site and Platform Selection]] considerations''
| |
| − | ** distance to repeater
| |
| − | * Power
| |
| − | ** how important is real-time accessibility? ''(e.g., what is desired collection frequency?)''
| |
| − | ** power requirements
| |
| − | ** on-site buffer size?
| |
| − | * Other considerations
| |
| − | ** reliability of transmission mode
| |
| − | ** reliability and robustness of equipment
| |
| − | ** configuration and software ''(e.g., what level of expertise is needed?, computer requirements)''
| |
| − | ** serial-to-ethernet devices
| |
| − | ** budget
