The buoy also had a real time GPS. Data from the Cleveland Bay Automatic Weather Station was used to provide above water meteorological data such as air temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, barometric pressure and rainfall.Data was collected in real time every 10 minutes and transmitted via nextG to AIMS and then into the Loggernet / AIMS systems.A dedicated web site was set up to allow access to the data to GBRMPA, weekly excel data digests were also delivered along with a final report on the project.
