Data loggers are electronic devices that record data over time or location through built-in or external instruments and sensors. They are generally battery powered, portable devices with a microprocessor, internal memory, and sensors. Data loggers can interface with PCs to view and analyze collected data, or operate independently. They have replaced chart recorders and allow unattended 24-hour monitoring to comprehensively capture environmental conditions like temperature and humidity.

2.1 Data loggers:
PC/hard disk/data logger
Environmental conditions monitored by the project are also required to be stored for
future referencing. Traditional methods used by the thermal hydrograph plots these
readings on graphs by its thermostats. In the digital age now, we have data loggers.
A data logger is generally an electronic device that records data over time or in
relation to location either with built in instrument or sensor or through external
instruments and sensors. Most of them are based on a digital processor (or computer).
They generally are battery powered, portable, and equipped with a microprocessor,
internal memory for data storage, and sensors. Some data loggers interface with a
personal computer and utilize software to activate the data logger to view and analyze
the collected data, while others have a local interface device (keypad, LCD) to be
used as a stand-alone device.
Data loggers vary between general purpose types to very specific devices for
measuring in one environment only. It is common for general purpose types to be
programmable however many remain as static machines with only a limited number
of changeable parameters. Electronic data loggers have replaced chart recorders in
many applications.
One of the primary benefits of using data loggers is the ability to automatically collect
data on a 24-hour basis. Upon activation, data loggers are typically deployed and left
unattended to measure and record information for the duration of the monitoring
period. This allows for a comprehensive, accurate picture of the environmental
conditions being monitored, such as air temperature and relative humidity.
