I am doing "prior art" research to find out what are reliable and open constructions of sensors (and controlling/recording) platforms used in citizen monitoring of environment.
Due to recent events in Poland, priority topic is river monitoring: water temperature, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, ORP (oxidation reduction potential), water level (sonar?).
Also, typical weather station sensors recommendations will be appreciated.
If you know about an active group dealing with river environment monitoring, please drop a link here – I will be happy to learn from them.
At this stage, I do not intend to start any deep R&D. I need to learn about good (best!) practices and appropriate hardware, so we can deploy a network of early warning checkpoints as soon and as cheaply as possible.

Pamiętaj, że na rzekach najważniejsze będą platformy kotwiczone albo stała (na budowlach/konstrukcjach). To oznacza minimalne użycie GPS, przeważnie on demand. Tylko drony potrzebują stałej nawigacji, ale pobór mocy do napędu jest taki, że baterie pociągną także GPS.
