A Custom Data Logger for Real-Time Remote Field Data Collections
Abstract
The purpose of this Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) is to describe a versatile, reliable, and relatively inexpensive custom-built datalogger system utilized by the Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory (CHL), Field Research Facility (FRF), for remote real-time data collections. This custom data logger is compact and energy efficient but has the same functionality as a personal computer allowing flexibility in programming languages and data collection routines, easy incorporation of new instrumentation, simultaneous collection of numerous (20 ) instruments, secure communication and data transfer, and direct communication with deployed instruments.
