Welcome on the repository of the Sailowtech CTD Project, an affordable and open-source CTD probe tailored for scientific expeditions.
After all, Open Source CTD probes already exist? Indeed, there are some great projects like Open CTD or CTDizzle, but we wanted something more tailored for mid to long term expeditions while allowing a modularity in the embedded sensors. Therefore, we aim to develop a project around a main electronic core and auxiliary cards that can be swapped depending on the research interest. For the moment, we propose a core based on a Raspberry PI Zero 2 W and an auxiliary cards for 2 Atlas Scientific Sensors (Conductivity, Temperature, Dissolved Oxygen, pH...).
If you encounter any issues, please use the Issue tracker on GitHub. Please note that this project is still in the development phase and currently undergoing testing.
