Heritage observatory · Equatorial Pacific Ocean · 1985 TAOSome seventy moorings along the equator across the Pacific, each reporting wind, temperature and salinity by satellite.Heritage observatory · World ocean · 1999 Argo profiling float arrayAbout four thousand small robots drift through the oceans, sinking to 2,000 metres every ten days and rising to report temperature and salinity by satellite.Interactive tools

02Open methods and templates
Every calculation, with a worked example.
Observatory templates for this industry, each a starting design you can read, run and adapt on the open protocol.
TemplateMethane fenceline observatory
Point sensors on the fenceline with optical gas imaging and quantification, feeding leak-detection reports.TemplateBioacoustic biodiversity observatory
Open-hardware acoustic recorders on solar power with low-power radio or satellite uplink, for species baselines.TemplateLow-cost stream gauge network
Radar or pressure level sensors with low-power radio and solar power, as a cheaper tier beside a national gauge network.TemplateHybrid air-quality observatory
A few reference analysers and many low-cost nodes, with co-location calibration and an open-data feed.TemplateResearch-infrastructure gap node
A standardised observation package with a FAIR data pipeline, built to extend a research infrastructure’s coverage.TemplateRoad weather corridor node
Pavement and visibility sensors with cameras and a traffic counter on a roadside pole, feeding maintenance decisions.TemplateHighway corridor coverage and safety sensing
Small cells with satellite backhaul along an unserved highway, with road-weather and camera nodes.TemplateWave buoy coastal array
Low-cost moored wave buoys with satellite telemetry, deployed as an array along a coast or port approach.TemplateAvalanche detection site
Doppler radar, infrasound and geophones with a snow and wind station, feeding a road or resort control room.03Open data
Networks on the grid, with their licences.
The open observing networks on the grid, each shown with its source and licence, and the protocol that lets new ones join.
