A Design Study for a Meteorological Instrumentation System for an OMEGA Tower.

Abstract

A design proposal for a meteorological instrumentation system for the OMEGA tower in South-East Victoria is described. The system includes sensors on booms at five tower levels, and additional sensors at the ten metre level and at ground level, transmitting data by radio link to a computer based data logger located in the Omega buildings. Emphasis has been placed on flexibility, ease of adaptation to different experiments, ease of use, reliability, and serviceability. (Author)
