Abstract: An environmental data collection system includes one or more smart sensors, a controller coupled to the one or more smart sensors, the controller including one or more modular decoders having a processor and a memory storing computer readable program code, that when executed by the processor, causes the modular decoder to configure communication and data retrieval between the one or more smart sensors and the controller, perform signal processing on data retrieved from the one or more smart sensors specific to the sensing capabilities of the one or more smart sensors, convert the signal processed data to a fixed bit format, and convey the fixed bit data to the controller.

Abstract: A smart environmental sensing probe includes a communication path, a controller connected to the communication path, and one or more smart sensors, each with at least one common electrical interface for exchanging sensor information with the controller over the communication path using a common communication protocol.

Abstract: An environmental data collection system includes a controller and one or more smart sensors coupled to the controller, each smart sensor comprising a memory, the memory configured to store configuration and calibration data for each data channel output by sensing devices of the smart sensors.

Abstract: A method and system for customizing a data logging and analysis program. The method includes connecting environmental sensors to a computer or other data collecting device and accessing a workflow customization interface that allows a user to select a customized workflow or optionally to customize a data collection program by selecting at least one action. The method also includes accessing a user interface to run a customized program.
