The wizzards that put Nest together have conspired to create the "Pulsepond" that will help sort out what you might be able to do next....
"Most people I talk to want to hear what the Pulsepod measures. (Short answer: a lot). But the thing we set out to do right more than anything else is make it easy to collect data in the field and get it online so it can be analyzed. It requires no zip ties, because it has a mount built in. It has no cable to plug in to download, because everyone has cellular, wifi, and bluetooth radios to connect with the GSM network, your local network, or your phone. You see immediately if the data is being collected and if it is good quality so you can walk away. You will never have to waste time writing a datalogger program or wiring stuff up. It has no wires to wire up! It has its own battery and solar power, so cross that off the list. And because all the power, logging, and sensing is in one little package you don’t need a pole with a lot of mounting hardware. All the data goes online so you can know when things aren’t going as planned. It has tilt, and level, and GPS so you know if it’s knocked off position or even stolen. (For that matter, you can find it again even when it’s not stolen). The spectrometer tells you if the diffuser is covered with gunk like corn pollen.'
"How about this one: no spreadsheets. Yes, you can download a spreadsheet, and browse it like we all do. But I’m saying you don’t have to ask around “hey who has the current spreadsheet?” We have built up a set of developer tools so you can always access the current data, and build more sophisticated analyses over time. Share access to someone else with a click, or revoke access just as easily."
