pH of the water. The data should be recordedapproximately every second and should have accuracy of ± 0.9° F (0.5º C), ±1.7*10-6 lb/gal (0.2mg/L), and ±0.2 pH units, respectively. These values correspond to the specifications of theequipment currently used by the scientists.To control the vessel, the Raspberry Pi is designed to use two modes, control via MOOS-IvP andcontrol via a standard ground control station (GCS) such as Qgroundcontrol from Dronecode ona companion computer or smartphone. The GCS option allows unskilled users to plan andexecute missions while the MOOS-IvP option allows complex intelligence tasks to beperformed.ImplementationFor propulsion, the AG-0 utilizes a 1.375” (3.5 mm) propeller, a 4300 KV motor, and a 60 Aelectric
