Tender Details
Tender Description
This tender has two components.
Coordinate the maintenance of the instrumented DustWatch network (image below) with the help of 35+ volunteers. This task has to be done in the Gunnedah office and includes:
* Checking the incoming data stream via the OEH DustWatch application (ClearSCADA based) to monitor instrument (TSI DustTrak) performance.
* Remote fault finding where applicable
* Guide volunteers with fault finding and monthly instrument maintenance
* Coordinate annual service with volunteers and Australian distributor.
* Maintain good contact and relations with the volunteers via phone and email. This is of upmost importance to the project as the volunteers save OEH > 400k annually. This task sometimes requires work outside of office hours as some volunteers are not contactable during the day. A rural background is considered an advantage.
* Maintain the site and instrument history, calibration certificates and performance records. Coordinate instrument calibration / distribution / storage. Attention to detail is required
Undertake weekly data QA and subjective aerosol classification based on aerosol concentration and weather data in conjunction with satellite imagery and local knowledge from volunteers. This task can be done either from the Gunnedah office or remotely and includes:
* Check DustTrak hourly concentration data for all sites (35) for malfunction. Attribute using the DustWatch ClearSCADA application (screenshot below) and satellite viewer.
* Classify hourly DustTrak data for all 35 sites into Dust / Fog / Smoke based on weather data, satellite and fire information and local knowledge from volunteers using the DustWatch ClearSCADA application.
