A River Runs Through a Sensor Network

Posted September 27, 2007 8:07 AM

Sensors magazine reports that IBM and the Beacon Institute are designing and implementing a sensor system to environmentally monitor all 315 miles of the Hudson River in New York State. Because the amount of data acquired will be so large, the project will need advanced data gathering and processing capabilities.

The preceding article is a "sneak peek" from Electrical Components, a newsletter from GlobalSpec. To stay up-to-date and informed on industry trends, products, and technologies, subscribe to Electrical Components today.
