Key Advantages
Technical Description
Konect Global Data Services is a cloud-based application for collection and display of data from Campbell Scientific's IP-enabled data loggers. It's built on a solid foundation of Campbell Scientific technology and hosted in a Microsoft Azure environment, so you can rest assured that your collected data is secure and available when and where you need it.
Data displays are created by selecting from a list of available components and dropping them on a workspace. Components include a variety of gauges (needle, linear, radial, compass), charts (line, xy scatter, columnar, wind rose), and data elements (data tables, data values). The location of stations can be marked on a map, and important data quickly displayed with a single-click on the station's map marker. The displays employ responsive design technology, which means they resize automatically to look great on any size device.
Users of your Konect data display log in under their own username and password, with Admin users having full rights to all functionality in the system. Konect also allows the designation of a data display as a kiosk, so that no user login is required to view the data.
Custom queries can be run on a table in the data logger and displayed in a table or chart format. The data from these queries can be exported to a CSV or Excel format. If you need a more automated solution, schedule one or more reports to run and deliver the data directly to you via email or FTP.
