HydraGO vs VuSitu

Take soil measurements anywhere for those applications not requiring a permanent soil monitoring system. Your iOS device communicates wirelessly with the HydraGO / HydraGO Flex using bluetooth. Simply insert the probe into the soil, and tap the “Sample” button in the HydraGO app. The app will display soil moisture content, temperature, conductivity, and dielectric permittivity on-screen for immediate viewing. The date and time of each measurement are recorded along with the soil measurement data and the GPS location measured by your smartphone’s GPS receiver (HydraGO) or automotive-grade GPS receiver (HydraGO Flex). All data can be saved and emailed as a .CSV file for analysis in Excel. Notes and location names can be added to the data records. HydraGO / HydraGO Flex uses the same patented soil sensor as the HydraProbe.

Connect the VuSitu mobile app to In-Situ Inc. water monitoring instruments and telemetry to easily view, manage and share water quality and quantity data. Use any Bluetooth-enabled mobile device to configure, calibrate and deploy your instruments, view live readings, and set up logs. Log in to your HydroVu account for secure data storage and sharing. A user-friendly walkthrough makes it easy to set up log files of all types, even with delayed starts or offset entry. View real-time data on multiple water quality parameters, run low-flow sampling events from your phone, and quickly share your data with colleagues via HydroVu. The VuSitu mobile app makes it easy to: • Interface with In-Situ Inc. instruments • Configure VuLink telemetry devices • Gather real-time water quality and water level data • Create logs and manage log data for all supported instruments • Open data files in Excel or parse into other systems • Securely store all data files in the cloud • Calibrate your instruments • Use instant graphing to determine when to start and stop readings • Receive firmware updates for connected instruments and communication devices with embedded automatic updates or custom downloaded files • View data for conductivity, optical dissolved oxygen (DO), ORP, pH, turbidity, water level/pressure, temperature, ammonium, nitrate, chloride sensors, chlorophyll a, phycocyanin (BGA-PC), phycoerythrin (BGA-PE), FDOM, crude oil, rhodamine WT, fluorescein WT • Define geographic locations with GPS coordinates and photos • Select measurement units • Run low-flow sampling events with your Aqua TROLL 400/500/600 using managed workflows on your phone VuSitu is currently available for the Level TROLL®, Rugged TROLL®, Aqua TROLL®, MPX4, VuLink®, RDO® Blue, and RDO® handheld instruments, for surface water, groundwater, coastal, wastewater, drinking water and aquaculture applications.
