1. A method for monitoring remote environmental conditions in real-time, the method comprising:
- receiving an access request from a user regarding real-time environmental conditions at one or more remote locations;
sending a command over a wireless communication network to a control board, wherein the command instructs the control board to begin collecting data in real-time from a plurality of sensors at the identified remote locations, each sensor measuring a different environmental condition;
receiving at least one packet sent from the control board over the wireless communications network, the at least one packet including sensor data concerning at least one real-time measurement of the environmental conditions; and
executing instructions stored in a memory of the server system, wherein execution of the instructions by a processor;
identifies one or more sensors associated with the packet,extracts data indicating a real-time measurement of an associated environmental condition for each identified sensor, andgenerates a display of a sensor listing, wherein each of the identified sensors is listed with its associated real-time measurement of the environmental conditions.
