Such a sensor integrated with a decision-making element, computation and<br />
communication facilities forms a smart sensor (Skierucha et al. [83], Wiczer<br />
[103]. Smart sensors must be also identified and have means for storing individual<br />
calibration data.<br />
The presented data logger system for collecting physical and chemical<br />
parameters of soil environment represents modern trends in the development of<br />
measurement systems that is manifested by low power consumption, high<br />
capacity of storage memory and possibility to control the measurement process<br />
from any place in the world using Internet connection or application of wireless<br />
radio connection in the case when the access to the monitored object is l<strong>im</strong>ited.<br />
Traditional sensors and measurement devices, such as soil thermometers,<br />
reflectometric soil water content meters, soil tensiometers for water potential<br />
measurement, rain-gauges and others may be easily equipped with not expensive,<br />
intelligent communication interfaces enabling identification, addressing as well as<br />
hardware and software compatibility with the presented MIDL data logger. The<br />
system was designed in modular way for future modifications following the<br />
progress in the metrology of non-electrical quantities and the general<br />
technological development.<br />
