Ard-what?

Arduino – http://arduino.cc

WHAT IS ARDUINO?Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for anyone making interactive projects.

Why would I be interested?

Because, DATA!Digital I/O Ports (PWM)

Analog Input Ports

What’s in it for Geogeeks?

GPS “Shields” – easy stacking, IO and power supplied via pins, plus SD Card Logging

What can I measure and map?TemperaturePressureLight levelHumiditySmokeCO2MethaneVOCsRadiationet cetera…

Putting it all together…

Easy to code, IDE is supplied, transfers your sketch to the Arduino via USB cable
