Development and evolution of OES system, datalogger equipment and associated software

Abstract

This paper delineates the different stages in the design and evolution of a datalogger system and its associated software. It was developed within the framework of a Project aimed at the study and processing of wind data for power generation, and carried out with open source tools. This project has focused on the development of in-house technology, with capabilities and performance comparable to equipment available on the market. Commercial off-the-shelf systems have been analysed, as well as associated software in order to set the general features and requirements for the prototype. An important number of industry-standard features in the processing of wind data for electric power generation have been considered. Hardware was developed and a web-based system located in an in-house server have been deployed, both of which work together to fulfill the proposed functions.
