DataGoo is an open-source device designed to measure power generation or consumption from small-scale electrical installations--cheaply. We designed it to be initially deployed in microhydro plants run by Alterna in Guatemala.
DataGoo builds heavily on a similar, open-source device called the OpenEnergyMonitor (emon). The emon system involves a transmitting device, a receiving device, and display software and is targeted for in-home deployment. Our device is designed for deployment in the field, so it uses a simpler output interface: text messages over GSM and logging to an SD card.
Download the required external libraries (see http://datagoo.readthedocs.org)
and place them in the Arduino libraries/ directory. Open
datagoo.ino, compile and upload using the GUI.
OS X/Linux
To build on *nix systems (tested on OS X 10.7):
./configure cd build make
