Wind Application for Architectural Measurement

The Wind application collects wind measurement data from a network of weather stations. It uses Java-enabled phones and wind measurement instruments connected via RS232 serial cables. The data is sent to a J2EE server via HTTP, where it is plotted on a map and made available on the Internet.

  1. Architectural DescriptionThe Wind application is based on the JDDAC platform. The system is comprised of a network of weather stations responsible for collecting the measurement data. Each weather station will be comprised of a Java-enabled phone and an wind measurement instrument. The phone and the instrument are connected via a RS232 serial cable. The phones will also have external antenna for improved radio communication.There is a J2ME midlet running on the phone.  The midlet is responsible for polling the instrument for wind measurements. The midlet also encodes the data and sends them to a J2EE server via HTTP.  The data is then translated to ASCII on the J2EE server, plotted on a map, and made available on the Internet.The system will obtain data once every minute from each weather station. The instrument we will use is from a Greek company called Symmetron.  These are the possible models that we may use:http://www.symmetron.gr/stylitis-41_home.htm (Logger Stylitis 41) http://www.symmetron.gr/stylitis-101_home.htm (Logger Stylitis 101) Last Updated: March 14, 2006 by Jerry Liu

  2. A Windows application software designed for use with Stylitis data loggers. It consolidates resources, events and data from measurement campaigns into one integrated environment. Streamlines operations and allow users work with site data as easily as possible. It does not have restrictions in the number of Access or MySQL databases it can handle. It features: • A central database for all data. • A tree-structured user interface. • Network operation. • Automatic/manual data retrieval from Stylitis data logger sites. • Built-in document storage and management. • Built-in query generator. • Built-in report generator. • Built-in task manager with reminders. • User-parameterised.  • Printing and exporting data to other programs.

  3. Equipment Management • Manufacturer (name, address, contacts, representative, etc.) • Model (Name, photo, cost, notes, related documents) • Type (data logger, sensor, mast, etc.) • Category (measuring, supporting, mechanical, etc) • Specifications (fixed, options, adjustments, etc.) • Status (under repair, not meeting specs, etc) • Settings (Calibration factors, switches, etc.) • Ownership (i.e. Companies, Zones, etc.) • Usage history (i.e. locations, dates, etc.) • Event history (i.e. Repair, calibration, withdrawal, etc.) • History related documents. • Event costs. • Inventory number. • Serial number.

  4. Equipment Management

  5. Location Management • Locations (Measurement sites, offices, storehouses, etc.) are organized in Regions (i.e. Companies, Zones, etc.) • Map representation of locations in a region with status. • Equipment symbolic name (i.e. ‘Ext. Temp. 10m’, etc.) • Symbolic equipment connections (i.e. Sensor1 to logger input A1, etc.) • Equipment addition date, removal date. • Equipment in sites is presented graphically. • Equipment location settings may override equipment settings. • Location data files with file importing parameters. • Status (i.e. partial operation, under construction, etc.) • Task history (i.e. visit, maintenance, equipment transport, etc.) • History related documents. • Persons employed (dates, work hours, costs, related documents) • Task and Location costs. • Location related documents.

  6. Location Management

  7. Data Management • Data from Stylitis logger sites can be imported automatically or manually. • Data are imported according to location-specific settings. • Users can set preferred factors (slope, offset, time intervals) for each site. • Automatic conversion of logger data files to user set preferred factors (i.e. logger slope can be replaced by site slope, etc.). • Data presented grouped per day, month and year or any other period. • Parallel comparison of data from many sites. • User-generated custom analyses (i.e. display data with values between two set points, display all locations where the average of data for a time period is greater than X, etc.) • Tracing back of data captured to equipment used. • Tabular and graphical representation. • Printing and exporting to various formats: comma delimited, Excel, text, Stylitis text.

  8. Data Management

  9. Persons Management • Information (i.e. name, call numbers, email, company, photo, etc.) • Site employment history (i.e. sites, dates, documents, costs, etc.) Documents Management • Title • Inventory code • Type (i.e. manual, photo, contract, report, etc.) • Category (i.e. internal, classified, etc.) • Status (i.e. current, obsolete, etc.) • Physical location • Issue and Revision dates • Revision authority • External filename or URL • Internal storage in database • Notes

  10. Documents Management

  11. Queries Management • Built-in, easy to use query generator for non-experienced users. • Open database structure allows experienced users build and edit own SQL queries. • Queries are organized in user specified categories. • User generated queries are integrated in the query menu. • Import and export of user queries. Reports Management • Reports ready for printing and presentation. • Built-in, easy to use report generator for non-experienced users. • Open database structure allows experienced users build and edit own SQL reports. • Reports are organized in user specified categories. • User generated reports are integrated in the report menu. • Printing of user reports, including PDF file support.
