JP_SETAGAYA_1  20120607-20120630
fullname: Setagaya Japan
station ID: 1
longitude: 139.644466
latitude: 35.637801
height: 54 m
S/N: 1040006.000
Since: 20120607-1556 (local time)

The S/N 1040006 is same with that of YONAGO. I halted the YONAGO station on 20120309 and the detector was reused as the Setagaya station. The station is about 8km from the most crowded area of Tokyo. (from Email from the maintainer) --GuentherWuchterl 16:04, 10. Jan. 2013 (UTC)

Measurement interval: 1 second

YONAGO_3

I replaced lightmeters at Yonago and Bisei from Mark2.3 to MarkPro2.4. So please provide ACCESSKEYs for them. Probably STATIONIDs will be JP_YONAGO_3 and JP_BISEI_2, respectively.

YONAGO_3
stationId: 3
long/lat/height: same with YONAGO_1&2

Since: 20100723 15:14 (localtime)
type:  MarkPro2.4

YONAGO_2

June 2010: On the other hand, I changed the lightmeter at Yonago, from No.42 to No.98. I think a new STATIONID should be given.

fullname: Yonago Japan
stationId: 2
longitude,latitude,height: same with YONAGO_1

Installation

The detector is mounted on an original stainless box, which stores the USB cable and one half of USB-Extender. The box is fixed by wires to a rail on the rooftop of a YNCT building. A 10m LAN cable is connected to a laptop PC through a counterpart of USB-Extender.
