Sun SPOTs in GIS
Monday Oct 01, 2007
We have just (well, a few weeks ago really) begun a collaboration, of sorts, with some folks at Warren Wilson College to do some exploration of GIS application of Sun SPOT technology.
This is cool stuff. Professor David Abernathy from Warren Wilson College in Asheville, NC is exploring the possibility of using Sun SPOTs in an installation in a rain forrest in Panama.
To begin with, they will do a Campus Sensor Network to test the viability of the Sun SPOTs, and from their move to deploying more Sun SPOTs as part of the project in Panama.
I just hope I get to go to Panama, though I'd settle for Asheville for now.
