REMOTE MEASUREMENTS & RESEARCH CO. (RMR CO.)

RMR Co. is a small company that specializes in instrumentation for remote environments, particularly maritime applications. We have offices on Long Island, New York and in Seattle WA. We provide special instrument design as required and will develop all preipheral hardware for extensive network installations. Data collection, post processing, and data analysis are a routine part of our activities.

Products

		ISAR (Infrared Sea Surface Temperature Autonomous Radiometer) combines a scanning infrared thermometer, GPS, and tilt sensor to provide autonomous real-time ocean skin temperature. Measurements are transmitted in real time via Iridium SBD. More SBD : Iridium short-burst data telemetry. R/V Kilo Moana : SST intercomparison and validation cruise, Samoa to Honolulu. R/V Mirai : Installation of new Isar and DAQ on the R/V Mirai.
		RAD is a smart interface from solar and IR radiometers to a shipboard computing system. RS232 or RS422 serial, NMEA style packets with calibrated irradiance averages, W/m^2. These units are being deployed on NOAA and university research vessels. More R/V Pisces : RAD for the NOAA R/V Pisces. Moss Landing : RAD for the Moss Landing Marine Labs. Slideshow : A collection of images on RAD deployments.
		SAMOS (Shipboard Automated Meteorological and Oceanographic System) quality measurement systems. The SAMOS mission is to improve the quality of meteorological and near-surface oceanographic observations collected in-situ on research vessels and volunteer observing ships. More Observation Handbook : Climate Quality meteorological measurements at sea (Bradley \& Fairall) SAMOS Goals : A discussion of climate quality meteorological measurements.
