Instruments for checking physical characteristics

Tender description

The Urban Observatory is a research project funded by Newcastle University as part of Science Central initiative. It seeks to understand how a city system functions and how different parameters interact. To ensure optimal performance and data quality of the E-MOTE sensor, we require maintenance on our network of 100 E-MOTEs. The E-MOTEs are located around the city and bought through a succession of tenders from Envirowatch http://www.envirowatch.ltd.uk/ We want to buy a maintenance package for up to 5 years. The contract will be for an initial 3 years, with options to extend for a further 2 x 12 month periods – subject to mutual agreement and the requirements of the project. Further competition to suppliers appointed to the environmental sensors lot on (NU/1195) Newcastle University Urban Observatory Sensors DPS. The Urban Observatory is a research project funded by Newcastle University as part of Science Central initiative. It seeks to understand how a city system functions and how different parameters interact. (e.g. heat island effect and green spaces, flooding and traffic congestion.) All the sensor data is open and available to the public via this portal (http://www.urbanobservatory.ac.uk/data) and shown alongside other available open data sources.
