Coastal Environmental
Systems America’s world leader in cutting edge reliable monitoring systems.
Mobile and Portable Weather Stations
Coastal Environmental SystemsCoastal Environmental Systems Founded in 1981 Goal: To collect and telemeter high quality
environmental data Began with cutting edge instrumentation for
Military and University research Evolved to large production projects New Goal: Integrate high quality
environmental data into DB’s, Networks, Lan’s, Wan’s, www.
