Wow! The best day ever. Here is how it started. I wake up early in the morning to meet Prof Obrou's student at 7:00AM at our hotel lobby. In deed he came on time. We hired a taxi and went to the site where we supposed to be for the day. We arrived at the site early, and Prof Obrou came with the instrument a bit late. We got a spot for our electronics and good home for the sensor. The real job started and everything went out successfully. This is my fifth magnetometer I deployed with Kathryn, and it was our first time that we accomplished this far in one day. Here is what we accomplished just today. Sensor securely buried and aligned, internet get connected (though the IP address issue is still pending) so that we can see the UDP on our website, GPS antenna securely mounted on top of the building, what else left? Nothing, except IP address and firewall issue, and other very little minor pending tasks which do not take that long. Isn't that the best day of our mission?
Our electronics got a safe corner spot!
The sensor deployment process started!
Sensor burial and alignment process completed, smiley face!!
GPS antenna securely mounted
Finally, we concluded our successful day by having nice dinner at the 331 best African restaurant. Tomorrow, we will go and see how the firewall issue will be handled, and finish-up our pending minor tasks.
