To Do Yet

Iridium system

• Sign up for service
• find 2x5 connector so I can turn them on
• review developer guide to see about how to send a message
  • I am thinking simple, like (this is relative) just using a raspberry pi to interface between the logger and the iridium. Or, start off that way and if I can manage then direct iridium to logger.
  • for rapid prototyping though

Snow laser

• Write up on how to use
• stretch goal of route following
• look into programming the R8s

Snow temps / depth / net radiation stand

• write data logger programs
• cobble package together for shipping
• white fiberglass rods
