Data Logging and Collection 3.5 Science and the Environment
Sensors The term 'data logging' refers to collecting or gathering data over a period of time. This is generally done using sensors.  A sensor measures a specific property data and sends a signal to the computer. Usually this is an analogue signal so it needs to be converted into digital data for the computer to process. This is done using by an Analogue-to-Digital Converter (ADC).

ADC A sensor measures a specific property data and sends a signal to the computer. Usually this is an analogue signal so it needs to be converted into digital data for the computer to process. This is done using by an Analogue-to-Digital Converter (ADC).
Where is computer measurement used? Anywhere that data needs to be gathered regularly, a computerised data-logging system can be used.
Scientific Experiments Many experiments can be set-up and left to run with a data-logging system measuring things like the temperature of a liquid, etc.
Weather Stations Often these are placed in very remote areas to collect data about rainfall, temperature, wind-speed, wind-direction, etc. Data needs to be gathered all day, every day. This data can then be used by weather forecasters to help predict the weather over the coming days.
Environmental Monitoring Scientists are very concerned about the effect that humans are having on the environment. Computer-based data-logging is often used to help gather evidence of these effects: the level of water in a dam, the speedof water flowing down a river, the amount of pollution in the air, etc.
Process – eg. Water Companies ,[object Object]
An ADC converts the analogue signals into digital data
The data is sent to the data logger where it is stored until called for by the Water Board's computer.

Data collection and logging

  • 1. Data Logging and Collection 3.5 Science and the Environment
  • 2. Sensors The term 'data logging' refers to collecting or gathering data over a period of time. This is generally done using sensors. A sensor measures a specific property data and sends a signal to the computer. Usually this is an analogue signal so it needs to be converted into digital data for the computer to process. This is done using by an Analogue-to-Digital Converter (ADC).
  • 10. ADC A sensor measures a specific property data and sends a signal to the computer. Usually this is an analogue signal so it needs to be converted into digital data for the computer to process. This is done using by an Analogue-to-Digital Converter (ADC).
  • 11. Where is computer measurement used? Anywhere that data needs to be gathered regularly, a computerised data-logging system can be used.
  • 12. Scientific Experiments Many experiments can be set-up and left to run with a data-logging system measuring things like the temperature of a liquid, etc.
  • 13. Weather Stations Often these are placed in very remote areas to collect data about rainfall, temperature, wind-speed, wind-direction, etc. Data needs to be gathered all day, every day. This data can then be used by weather forecasters to help predict the weather over the coming days.
  • 14. Environmental Monitoring Scientists are very concerned about the effect that humans are having on the environment. Computer-based data-logging is often used to help gather evidence of these effects: the level of water in a dam, the speedof water flowing down a river, the amount of pollution in the air, etc.
  • 15.
  • 16. An ADC converts the analogue signals into digital data
  • 17. The data is sent to the data logger where it is stored until called for by the Water Board's computer.
  • 18. On request, the digital data is transmitted to the Water Board's computer.
  • 19. Special software (data logging software) takes the data and analyses it
  • 20. The results of the analysis are presented as graphs and tables
  • 21.
  • 22. Data logging can be carried out 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year
  • 23. Time intervals for collecting data can be very frequent and regular, for example, hundreds of measurements per second
  • 24. Can be set up to start at a time in the future
  • 25. No need to have a person present
  • 26.
  • 27. Equipment can be expensive for small tasks
  • 28. The equipment will only take readings at the logging interval which has been set up. If something unexpected happens between recordings, the data will not be collected.
