Data Collection, Monitoring and Quality Assurance (DMQ)DMQ1: Connect instruments and sensors effectively to the networkThe work package DMQ1, “effectively connect sensors to the network” has been one of the most complex work packages undertaken in the DART project. The project involved developing and deploying a marine sensor network on Davies Reef, about 100 kilometres offshore of Townsville. This work package provided one platform for the ACQUISTION work in the DART Project as it dealt with real sensors on the Great Barrier Reef, the other being crystallography. More DMQ2: Connection of instruments to storage repositoriesThis work package is extremely closely coupled to the DMQ5 Work Package, ‘Improve the intelligence of the storage framework’ which provided the intelligent storage solution utilising the Kepler workflow tool. More DMQ3: Data from instruments and sensors to warrant curationThe DMQ3 Work Package was modified, with board approval, following delays in obtaining live data from the Davies Reef deployment of sensor networks and the loss of our primary research resource from Monash University to Sydney University. Despite the challenges presented during the work package, this work package is has produced two clearly important deliverables. More DMQ4: Online remote access to instrumentsThe instrument data visualization tools are being developed as part of the DART DMQ4 workpackage. The objective of DMQ4 is to provide online, remote access to pilot working instruments and sensors. More DMQ5: Improve the intelligence of the storage frameworkThe original DMQ5 work package project goal was to ‘Improve the intelligence of the storage framework.’ The initial key elements were to build triggers into the database and then create production ready triggers. Later the work package's focus moved more onto Kepler orientated tasks including the JAINIS system. More |
