The Coillte group request expressions of interest from suitably qualified candidates for a Telemetry system capable of collecting live production data from its contractor harvesting fleet, integrating the data from the disparate sources into a central repository facilitating live monitoring and reporting of harvest processes.
The required hardware and software solution should cover at least the following areas:
• In cab device /interface with existing harvesting telemetry
• Data transmission
• Data storage/Data warehouse
• Data analysis and reporting
The solution must be capable of:-
• Interfacing with the telemetry on Coillte’s contractor harvesting fleet and
• Supporting robust, long-distance wireless communications in challenging, large scale environments such as those found in the Coillte estate.
• Integrating data from the disparate sources into a central repository or Data Warehouse (DW). The DW will store current and historical data.
• Facilitating live monitoring of harvesting processes as well as providing real-time harvest process reports and creating analytical reports for knowledge workers throughout the enterprise.
The in cab data capture and transmission devices must be robust enough to be used outdoors and in machines working in the forest exposed to the elements. The solution must be capable of storing live data from any forest to a location accessible to Coillte staff.
The solution must be able to integrate and access data from different systems used in harvesting machines and forwarders without having to make changes to those systems.
