Vehicle related wireless scientific instrumentation telematics
First Claim
1. An in-vehicle device configured to communicate with a scientific instrument component for communicating scientific instrumentation data samples gathered at a vehicle to a data processing resource remote from the vehicle, said in-vehicle device comprising;
- a scientific instrumentation interface configured to receive the scientific instrumentation data samples gathered at scheduled intervals at the vehicle from the scientific instrument component, and configured to process commands from the data processing resource to chance the scheduled intervals when the scientific instrumentation data samples are gathered; and
a data communication interface coupled with said scientific instrumentation interface, said data communication interface configured to communicate the scientific instrumentation data samples from the scientific instrumentation interface to the data processing resource remote from the vehicle, to receive the commands to change the scheduled intervals from the data processing resource, and to communicate the received commands to the scientific instrumentation interface.

Abstract
An in-vehicle device data communicates with data processing resources, including global network based data processing resources for the purpose of programming and receiving data from an in-vehicle device where the data communicated can include sampling intervals, global position system (GPS) data, or scientific instrumentation data related to certain weather, environmental, traffic, or road conditions.
Scientific instrumentation data gathering can be effectuated proximate to a vehicle, wherein the vehicle has an in-vehicle device and the in-vehicle device has a scientific instrumentation interface. In this regard, scientific instrumentation data can be obtained while the vehicle is stationary or in motion.
Scientific instrumentation data gathered at the data processing resource or gathered by the in-vehicle device can be utilized to effectuate a wide variety of data dissemination. Such data dissemination can include forecasting, change predictions, warning alarm determinations, and or other reporting or analysis related to weather, environmental, traffic, or road conditions.
