Background

The Common Sensor Platform project is working to standardize deployments with scalable and modular elements where possible to streamline project support across our suite of geophysical instrumentation. Read more in our April 2023 news post.

The EarthScope team is meeting in San Diego to release the v1 design and engineering protocols they’ve been building over the past two years, and to begin planning their next steps. This is also an opportunity to present this design to interested community members and gather their feedback before official release and implementation.

Additionally, the team has been working on an interactive web tool to help users configure station components before requesting support. This tool will allow you to see power demand and estimate the number of solar panels and/or batteries you’ll need. After a walkthrough of the first version of the tool, the team is looking for general feedback and requests for additional functionality.
