01

Context

CIRAD Reunion operated a distributed network of weather stations across the island.

02

Problem

Legacy PSTN communications were aging and supervision needed modernization.

03

Solution

Contributed to the 4G/GPRS migration, LoggerNet/Campbell supervision, local and remote troubleshooting, R/CRBasic scripts and operating procedures.

04

Key lesson

Operational procedures matter just as much as the technology itself.

Under the hood

How the project actually works

Architecture, constraints, deliverables and real impact.

04

Main challenge

Maintain measurement continuity across distributed sites with power, telecom and field-access constraints.

01 Sensors
02 Dataloggers
03 4G / field retrieval
04 Collector
05 Quality control / database
05

Deliverables

  • Field interventions
  • 4G configuration
  • LoggerNet supervision
  • Scripts and controls
  • Diagnostic procedures
06

Impact

An end-to-end view from sensor to database makes it faster to locate where the chain broke.

Designed for real-world use

What this project demonstrates

I start from the problem and business flow, then aim for an observable, testable and maintainable solution rather than a demo effect.
