1. A method, comprising:
- (a) receiving a plurality of data readings related to resource availability in a medium from a sensor;
(b) determining a metric based at least on a difference between a first reading in the plurality of data readings and a second reading in the plurality of data readings;
(c) determining at least one of a magnitude of a value of the metric or a sign of the value of the metric;
(d) repeating steps b and c for a pre-determined number of data readings; and
(e) determining a characteristic of the medium based on at least one of the stored magnitudes or the stored signs.

Abstract
Methods and system for multi-dimensional environmental monitoring, systematic dissection of interpretive relationships and extensive computational analysis, which can be displayed in a visual real-time data-rich web-based configuration called AdviroGuard™ interpretive analysis. By means of building data subsets and in harmonization with the laws of physics contained within a particular environmental medium, strict statistical analysis are applied to produce significant and pertinent information for key decision makers.

9. A method, comprising:
-
(a) assessing resource distribution in a medium; and (b) deploying a plurality of sensors in the medium according to a predetermined pattern of locations determined at least in part by an outcome of the assessing step, wherein each one of the plurality of sensors measures resource availability. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
