Goals: Get ready for deployment.
Integrate the GPS part into the new design using Eagle.
Deployment at 1:30pm-3:00pm Issues with not being prepared, running back and forth trying to get the board mounted properly. Solar irradiance needed to be resoldered to new female headers due to terrible connections

Update and redo meeting minutes to better reflect our condition and progress. Recognized that the board deployed failed. For some reason the solar panel got up to 7V when it was rated for 6.3V. This also may have been an issue with the board, but we need to schedule another time to get to the roof to recover the box or switch the solar panels. Documentation Day, input all issues and advances in our semester into SCEL wiki.

Troubleshoot, why the deployment of the weather box was met with failure. Best conclusion is that since the solar panel was receiving more voltage than the other parts of the board not enough was used to power anything else. Just waiting on confirmation when we could retrieve the board from the roof. Just need to fill out the forms to gain access to the rooftop. Discussion about roof access. Need to fill out access forms for proper future permission. Resume work and connecting via LinkedIn.
