Instrumentation and Telematics
Data acquisition, from concept to final product.
Sensors, environmental and atmospheric monitoring, industrial control and measurement, and the custom software that turns a signal into a decision your team can act on.
Who we are
Instrumentation, control and software. Built for the application.
ITD stands for Instrumentation and Telematics Development. We take a measurement requirement from concept through design, build and commissioning to a finished, documented product, then support it in service.
Hardware and software are specified together, by the people who will also be there when the system needs attention.
Our capabilities
From sensor selection to the decision on your screen.
Instrumentation, control and software specified together, by the people who will also be there when the system needs support.
Data Acquisition Systems
Complete measurement systems taken from concept through design, build and commissioning to a final, documented product you can rely on and maintain.
Sensors and Instrumentation
Sensor selection, integration and calibration across physical, electrical and atmospheric parameters, matched to the accuracy the application genuinely needs.
Environmental and Atmospheric Monitoring
Weather, air quality and lightning monitoring with remote telemetry, engineered to keep reporting from sites that have no power and no infrastructure.
Industrial Control and Measurement
Measurement and control for process and plant: instrumentation, signal conditioning, interlocks and integration with the systems you already run.
Custom Software
Live dashboards, alerting, reporting and APIs, built so somebody on shift can tell what is happening and what to do about it.
Technical Consulting and Support
Specification review, commissioning, calibration schedules and fault-finding, including on systems we did not supply.
Outcomes
Clear results from integration-heavy work.
Measurement is well understood. Making the measurement arrive, stay true for years and reach the person who has to act on it is where projects come unstuck.
Get into the field fast
We get a working system acquiring and reporting real data as early as we can. Field results and operator feedback then drive the build, instead of another round of specification.
Integration is the product
The joins between sensor, conditioning, acquisition, software and the person on shift are where these projects are won or lost. That is exactly what we do.
Built to run in the real world
Systems ship with diagnostics, documentation and a known support route, so your team and ours can keep them running without heroics.
Integration is the product
Integration is where these projects are won or lost.
Most measurement projects fail in the handovers: sensor to signal conditioning, conditioning to acquisition, acquisition to software, software to the person who has to act. Those joins are exactly what we do.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before commissioning a system.
From sensor selection and signal conditioning to calibration, software and support, answers to the questions we are asked most.
What does ITD actually deliver?
Complete data acquisition and measurement systems, taken from concept to a finished product. That covers sensor selection and instrumentation, environmental and atmospheric monitoring, industrial control and measurement, the custom software that presents and acts on the data, and the technical consulting and support around it.
Can you work on systems you did not supply?
Yes, and a good deal of our work starts that way. A common case is instrumentation that is installed and logging correctly, but whose data never reaches anyone who can use it. We can take on the communications, ingest and software and leave the existing instruments in place.
Which sensors and instruments do you work with?
We specify for the application rather than for a single brand, and we work with established instrumentation including Campbell Scientific, R.M. Young and Rika, alongside custom sensor arrangements where a standard build does not fit.
What happens when a system stops reporting?
Our systems ship with diagnostics, so station health, power state, signal quality and last-seen times are visible before a reading goes missing rather than after somebody notices a gap in a report. Most faults are then diagnosed remotely, and a site visit is the exception rather than the default.
Do you handle installation and ongoing maintenance?
Yes. Site surveys, mounting, cable routing, earthing and lightning protection, then scheduled calibration, sensor replacement and fault-finding so the measurement record stays defensible years after commissioning.
How do projects usually start?
With a conversation about what has to be measured, to what accuracy, and what decision the data drives. From there we scope the instrumentation, power and communications and come back with a workable approach and a clear price.
Do you sell components, or take one-off printing or CNC jobs?
No. ITD does not supply electronic components to the public, and we do not take on individual 3D printing, CNC machining or one-off prototyping jobs. Our prototyping and manufacturing exist to support the instrumentation systems we design and deliver. We work business-to-business, with government, and as a private sub-contractor on projects internationally.
