Data Receiving and Storage Software:

Specific software named “radio modem” is developed to receive and store transmitted data from the buoy at coastal station. This software establishes a link between coastal, marine, and weather stations and works as a real time receiver.

The status display window of this software shows data transmission from receiver to radio modem transmitter and their storage status, data decoding status, data transmission to the SQL Server 2008 R2 database which is connected to the network, real time quality control, determination of the data accuracy, etc. User can check and track the software operation through this page and see the probable errors of the system.

Coastal station of buoy:

The processor board gathers the measured data by buoy’s sensors or weather station, and sends them to coastal station. The costal station consist of  a radio model telecommunication system, receiver antenna, urgent power supply (UPS), a computer and required software to receive, store, display and exploit data.  In addition, interior software named “Immediate quality control data” inside the radio modem software’s core is responsible for checking the data accuracy.
