Community Monitoring Stations (CMS) are located at
Mountain View Middle School in Blackfoot, Idaho, and Madison Middle School in
Rexburg, Idaho. These stations, operated by members of the community,
consist of air and radiation monitors and meteorological equipment. The
stations serve two purposes:
Data displays at the stations allow the
public to view the weather and radiation records of their own community
within Stoller's environmental surveillance program.
Data is used as an education tool for
the local schools. Data generated by the stations is accessed
through the school's local area network and used in the science classroom.
Meteorological equipment at the
stations are maintained by NOAA and the data from the stations is
displayed on the
NOAA
website.
