CHAPTER 1
GENERAL INFORMATION
This document give you detailed information on the MAWS
HydroMet systems, which offer advanced environmental monitoring
features integrated into a compact and economical system package.
For more details on available sensors and telemetry solutions, please
refer to the following technical description documents:
• MAWS Systems- Meteorological Sensors (DOC211899)
• MAWS Systems - Hydrological Sensor (DOC211895)
• MAWS Systems - Sensors for Soil Measurements (DOC211896)
• MAWS System - Telemetry (DOC211897)
Technology
The MAWS HydroMet systems integrated around the QML201
Logger are new generation, fully integrated systems especially
designed for applications where no commercial power or
communication networks are present or are too expensive to be
installed. Due to their flexibility and economical design, the MAWS
systems are the ideal choice for both meteorological and hydrological
applications. The possibility of using the same and standard
equipment for various applications lowers the cost of training, spare
parts and logistics support – the Total Life Cycle Cost of the network
investment. QML201 based systems offer the most economical
solution when the total life cycle cost of operating the entire network
is fully considered.
