Readiness for field deployment:
measures maturity for field
deployment in terms of economic and engineering efficiency.
Scalability:
a sensor’s
scalability
to distributed environmental
monitoring tasks require that the sensors be small and inexpensive
enough to scale up to many distributed systems.
Sensors are deployed in thousands. It is expected that cost
will drop but current generation sensors are still expensive to allow
wide deployment.
For water quality monitoring, physical sensors are
generally more field
ready and scalable than chemical
sensors, which are, in turn, substantially more field
ready and scalable than biological sensors
Libelium study involving a total of
283
interested
users in
terms
of sensors preferences. The users
include researchers and
practioners
(developers).
The results are classified in the next 5 main fields:
environmental,
gas,
physical,
optical and
biometric.
