Each SensorCloud billing plan operates on a monthly cycle.  The month begins when the user enters their billing info.  A user can upgrade and downgrade devices at any time in the month.  Upgrades made during a billing cycle will be pro-rated for the remaining days in the billing cycle.  At the end of the billing cycle, all upgraded devices are automatically renewed and MDP and OpenData API allotments are refreshed.
 

No, the on-board GPS does not support this.... but if the user has a GPS that does, this external GPS can input its 'RTK-groomed' measurements into the 3DM-GX3-45 and the 3DM-GX3-45 will incorporate those measurements into the Kalman filter.  To be clear: the on-board GPS will be bypassed in favor of the external GPS.

Wikipedia's definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Time_Kinematic

Real Time Kinematic (RTK) satellite navigation is a technique used to enhance the precision of position data derived from satellite-based positioning systems, being usable in conjunction with GPS, GLONASS and/or Galileo. It uses measurements of the phase of the signal′s carrier wave, rather than the information content of the signal, and relies on a single reference station to provide real-time corrections, providing up to centimetre-level accuracy. With reference to GPS in particular, the system is commonly referred to as Carrier-Phase Enhancement, or CPGPS. It has application in land survey and in hydrographic survey.

Yes, absolutely.  SensorCloud is viewable on Android and IOS devices.

SensorCloud has a very powerful function called MathEngine.  MathEngine allows users to process vast quantities of sensor data in the cloud, and on the fly.   Users can either create simple custom scripts for basic operations such as averaging and filtering, or, they can implement advanced data processing algorithms for generating condition indicator metrics such as metal fatigue or bearing failure.

Yes, absolutely.  You are the administrator of your account and you can grant password protected read or read/write access to anyone you like.  Anyone who has access to a web browser can graphically see your data.  You can also send automatic alerts to anyone you like.

Product Linkage: 

Yes, absolutely.  The SensorCloud interface allows you to manually download a CSV (spreadsheet file) on any data set you choose.  You may also download any data set programmatically using the calls in the OpenData API.
