- Manoa data collection: a set of 5 linux boxes placed around
campus, connected via the regular internet. Brian is providing the
boxes, Dan and Rob will install Linux and the weather software, Edo
will sit back and tell everyone what to do :-) The boxes will have a
rain gauge and a temperature/humidity sensor. They may or may not
have cameras or other sensors (Kim?).
Plan is to have the Linux installation complete by the end of
July, and deployment finished before the beginning of the semester.
- Getting the "box" computer up and running. Linux installation
(Brian, Edo, Dan, Rob, et al.), power requirements and solar panels (Brian,
Edo), 802.11 connection to a base station (mostly Brian), installing
at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (Kim et al.). Same weather sensors
as the Manoa units.
Plan is to have the Linux installation complete by the end of
July, and deployment finished before the beginning of the semester.
- Testing 802.11. We plan to purchase 1 hub and 6 NICs. The 6
NICs are all PCMCIA capable, and we also plan to purchase two IDE
and two (???) adaptors.
Plan is to go as fast as possible subject to the whims of vendors
and the UH purchasing process. Kim will be seen walking around campus
talking to his laptop.
Other activities are ongoing. These include:
