There is a wide consensus within the polar science, meteorology, andoceanography communities that more in-situ observations of the ocean,atmosphere, and sea ice, are required to further improve operationalforecasting model skills. Traditionally, the volume of such measurements hasbeen limited by the high cost of commercially available instruments. Anincreasingly attractive solution to this cost issue is to use instrumentsproduced in-house from open source hardware, firmware, and post processingbuilding blocks. In the present work, we release the next iteration of the opensource drifter and waves monitoring instruments. The new design is bothsignificantly less expensive, much easier to build and assemble for peoplewithout specific microelectronics and programming competence, more easilyextendable and customizable, and two orders of magnitude more power efficient.Improving performance and reducing noise levels and costs compared with ourprevious generation of instruments is possible in large part thanks to progressfrom the electronics component industry. As a result, we believe that this willallow scientists in geosciences to increase by an order of magnitude the amountof in-situ data they can collect under a constant instrumentation budget. Inthe following, we offer 1) detailed overview of our hardware and softwaresolution, 2) in-situ validation and benchmarking of our instrument, 3) fullopen source release of both hardware and software blueprints. We hope that thiswork, and the associated open source release, may be a milestone that willallow our scientific fields to transition towards open source, community driveninstrumentation. We believe that this could have a considerable impact on manyfields, by making in-situ instrumentation at least an order of magnitude lessexpensive and more customizable than it has been for the last 50 years.

OpenMetBuoy-V2021: an easy-to-build, affordable, customizable, open  source instrument for oceanographic measurements of drift and waves in sea  ice and the open ocean
