OSIE-2 PUCK telecon notes: 8/25/2009

Hi everybody,

We had a sparsely-attended meeting today - see my notes.

Regards,
Tom


Attendees: Cater, Ng, O'Reilly

Agenda:

1. SmartBay demo
a) Status of Axys integration
b) Status of RBR integration
c) Plans to integrate with Compusult Sensor Observation Service

Neil - What is status of RBR instrument? Ng: actually have an PUCK-enabled RBR tide gauge (TGR-2050).
Neil: Buoy is ready to deploy; waiting for deployment boat. Can we upgrade firmware remotely? Ng: Yes, using radio link. Neil: still need to upgrade Aquadopp; will check with Eric Davis. WETLabs in future.

O'Reilly - send Sven's contact info to Chris Ng.

Neil: will follow up with Robert Thomas

Plan: swap PUCK-enabled instruments on same port. Compusult to provide SWE interfaces.
Neil: RBR apparently unable to provide a data logger for demo. So Axys only.

2. November demo at MARTECH - what capabilities will be demonstrated?
a) Use of payload tags?
b) Which SOS to use?
c) Integrate STWS into observatory servers?
d) Develop "script" for MARTECH demo

Some ideas (T.O'R.)
Store actual TEDS in PUCK
Use payload tags; swap instrument between observatories
Note potential STWS integration


3. Payload tags - are we ready to distribute draft to SOSC?
