Xylon Data Capture
is a Pocket PC application for capturing large amounts of GPS data quickly and
efficiently with a high degree of flexibility. We originally wrote this
application after looking for a data logger suitable for capturing large volumes
of data cost effectively without the burden of using a laptop PC.
Xylon captures and
stores GPS information as required and configured by you. This is true low cost
flexible data acquisition, the only requirements being a Pocket PC and GPS
capture module. Depending upon your requirements you can use anything from a $60
GPS board to a real time kinetic system depending upon the desired level of
accuracy. The only requirement is that the GPS
transmits in the NMEA 0183 ASC format which most do.
A major feature of Xylon is the dual capture mode which allows you to capture a continuous stream of data which will plot your course, you can simultaneously capture extra readings to a separate file with codes of your choice attached. For example, if you wish to drive along every road in a town and log every pothole requiring repair you can define a code as “pothole” and as you drive past each hole just press the record button and a separate string with the code “pothole” attached is saved to file. All the while you are doing this another file is constantly capturing data to record your entire journey. This data can be processed and plotted straight on to a local map and given to a contractor who is to carry out repairs. You can further refine this task by adding as many additional codes as you like to define, for instance, the depth of pothole or the repair priority level.
The Xylon data logger is customisable, if you have any requests, such as customising for market research, GIS info or any other application please contact us
