项目摘要

The program of the present project (named as CatRace) is the followings :(1) A cheap system is constructed for continuous air-temperature recording and for automatic data transfer via telecomputing.(2) The systems are lent to a few schools in Kagoshima prefecture (Japan) for at least one year and the temperature data are collected in the CatRace BBS of Kafe, the telecomputing-center of Faculty of Education, Kagoshima university.(3) The temperature data are offered to public for the purpose of school education through the CatRace home page of the internet and the CatRace BBS of Kafe.Up to March 1996, the cooperation schools are fixed to Okuchi-Minami junior high school, Takanosu junior high school and Nishi-Amuro elementary school. The temperature data of every 30 minutes at the three schools and the Faculty of Education are available for public use since April 1^<st>,1996. The URL of the CatRace home page is http : //www-rk. edu. kagoshima-u. ac. jp/catrace/.The sensor (thermistor) is simply attached on the northern wall of the school building with a specially designed cover. The data, however, show natural behavior, i.e., there are little influence of air-conditioner nor of direct radiation of the Sun. Since the geographical conditions of the schools are typically different and also Kagoshima is meteorologically interesting (often attacked by typhoons, for example), the data are suitable for the educational materials in school.The data are already used in the exercises of information processing and the classes of science, and are expected to be useful for other courses.The information given in the CatRace home page is increasing in variety ; weather information and graphs of the temperature. Especially we are trying to give a selective graphical data by interactive user interface.

The program of the present project (named as CatRace) is the followings :(1) A cheap system is constructed for continuous air-temperature recording and for automatic data transfer via telecomputing.(2) The systems are lent to a few schools in Kagoshima prefecture (Japan) for at least one year and the temperature data are collected in the CatRace BBS of Kafe, the telecomputing-center of Faculty of Education, Kagoshima大学。（3）通过互联网的Catrace主页和Kafe的Catrace BBS向公众提供温度数据。自1996年4月1日^<ST>以来，三所学校和教育学院每30分钟的温度数据每30分钟和教育学院提供。 Catrace主页的URL为http：// www-rk。 edu。 kagoshima-u。交流。 JP/CATRACE/。传感器（Thermistor）简单地安装在学校建筑物的北墙上，并带有专门设计的盖子。但是，数据显示出自然行为，即空调或太阳直接辐射的影响很小。由于学校的地理条件通常是不同的，而且kagoshima在气象学上也很有趣（例如，经常受到台风的攻击），因此数据适用于学校中的教育材料。数据已用于信息处理和科学类别，并且预计对其他课程有用。天气信息和温度图。特别是我们试图通过交互式用户界面提供选择性的图形数据。
