X-Sense Key Personnel ETH ZurichEmbedded and Wireless TechnologyLothar Thiele, Jan Beutel University ZurichPhysical GeographyStephan Gruber GAMMA SASAR Remote SensingTazio Strozzi, Urs Wegmüller ETH ZurichGeodesy and PhotogrammetryAlain Geiger BAFU/FOENFederal Office for the EnvironmentHugo Rätzo

  3. X-Sense Proposed Platform Host Stationprocessing, fusion, storage Reference GPS Moving debrismoving rock slope

  4. Field Site Selection Orographic right side of Mattervalley (VS) on September 2, 2010 Grosse Grabe, Gugla, Dirru and Grabengufer rockglaciers

  5. GPS Testbed • Preliminary GPS testbed on Dirru rock glacier • Financially supported by BAFU/FOEN and canton Wallis • 3 permanent GPS stations • Low-cost L1 GPS receivers • Solar panels • Local data storage

  6. Geoscientific Analysis

  7. New GPS Logger Devices • 30 GPS logger devices have been designed and manufactured in partnership with Art-of-Technology AG • Testing is currently ongoing • Deployment is planned for Q4/2010

  8. Test Installation Randa/Dirruhorn • 20 km WLAN link from Zermatt to Randa • Collaboration with CCES/RECORD + COGEAR (S. Loew, P. Burlando; ETHZ) • New Base Station test installation on designated Dirruhorn field site (4 km WLAN link, solar power) • Will be upgraded with GPS-capable Core Station in Q4/2010

  9. Proposed X-SENSE Technical Evolution PermaSense Sensors GPS Data GPS Loggers Science results 2010 Online GPS Prototype Data/Specs Experience 2011 Online GPS/Sensor System Data/System 2012 X-Sense

  10. The PermaSense Project Wireless Sensor Networks for Extreme Environments

  11. Low-power Wireless Sensors • Static, low-rate sensing (2 min) • Temperatures, crack meters, resistivity • 3 years operation • < 0.1 Mbytes/node/day

  12. Base Station for Data Collection

  13. Imaging

  14. Long-haul Communication 7.5 km from weather radar on Klein Matterhorn Leased fiber/DSL from Zermatt Bergbahnen AG Collaboration with APUNCH/CCES

  15. Online Data Management • Global Sensor Network (GSN) • Data streaming framework from EPFL • Organized in “virtual sensors”, i.e. data types/semantics • Hierarchies and concatenation of virtual sensors enable on-line processing • Translates data from machine representation to SI values • Adds metadata Web export Import from field GSN GSN Private Public Metadata ============== Position Sensor type …

  16. Some PermaSense Data/Results

  17. TechnischeInformatik und Kommunikationsnetze Computer Engineering and Networks
