SitkaNet Updates
All nodes and hubs have been installed in the field in Sitka. All six nodes are collecting data and working as expected. We ran into an issue with one of the hubs not receiving data from the nodes. We believe this is due to an antenna issue and are confident it can be solved.
Six nodes and two hubs have been built and fully tested for over a month and are ready to be deployed in Sitka, Alaska
Field testing is ongoing. We have made a couple modifications based on feedback from the testing. These include increasing the length of sensor cables to increase speed and ease of installation. We are also testing different modifications to the STEMMA sensors to increase their effectiveness in saturated soil conditions. The best solution is to add layers of heat shrink to tune the sensor to the soil conditions specific to each deployment location. We have also started writing an article for HardwareX.
One node has been placed in the field to test durability and sensor characteristics.
Version 2 is being developed. The first prototype should be done and ready to test by December 13.
