Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments

572
Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments (EDMs) are essential tools in modern surveying, offering precise distance measurements by emitting electromagnetic signals and calculating the time required for these signals to travel to a target and return. Two primary types of signals are used in EDMs — light waves and microwaves — each suited to specific environmental and distance requirements. Light-wave-based EDMs utilize either infrared or laser light, providing high accuracy over...

Design Example: Identifying the Locations of Monuments in the Field Using Global Positioning System Device

423
Surveyors use Global Positioning System (GPS) technology to measure the precise location and elevation of points on Earth. In a recent survey, GPS receivers were used to determine the coordinates and elevations of two park monuments. The process involved careful mission planning, data collection, and correction to ensure accuracy. The survey began with mission planning to identify optimal satellite visibility and minimize Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP). A geodetic control point...

Area of Science:

  • Museum Studies
  • Environmental Monitoring
  • Art Conservation Science

Background:

  • Cultural heritage institutions require stable environments for artifact preservation.
  • Understanding microclimate dynamics is crucial for preventing art degradation.
  • The Cloisters, a medieval art branch of The Met, presents unique environmental challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present results from a three-year continuous monitoring of environmental conditions at The Cloisters.
  • To assess temperature, airflow, and microclimate changes using a wireless sensor platform.
  • To establish a baseline for understanding the impact of visitors and building operations on art preservation.

Main Methods:

  • Deployment of a wireless sensor network with over 200 sensors across five galleries.
  • Continuous monitoring of environmental parameters including temperature and airflow.
  • Application of physics-based and statistical models to quantify microclimate changes.

Main Results:

  • The wireless sensor network data indicated a highly stable indoor environment within the galleries.
  • Dense monitoring allowed for localized tracking of subtle air quality trends.
  • The study quantified the impact of visitor presence on microclimate conditions.

Conclusions:

  • High-resolution data provides a baseline for long-term art preservation strategies.
  • Continuous monitoring is effective in assessing environmental stability and visitor impact.
  • Findings inform strategies for preserving medieval art at The Cloisters.
