## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for designing instrumentation programs in mining environments. It allows AI agents to analyze geotechnical hazards and determine the necessary sensor types, quantities, and spatial layouts. By using `plan_instrument_selection`, agents can map specific risks like ground movement to the correct sensors. The `calculate_instrument_quantities` tool ensures proper sensor density based on excavation importance, while `generate_instrument_layout` provides precise placement strategies. Finally, `define_data_management_plan` establishes the telemetry and storage requirements needed for reliable monitoring.

## Tools

### define_data_management_plan
Establishes requirements for data collection, transmission, and storage

### generate_instrument_layout
Provides the spatial configuration and placement strategy for selected instruments

### plan_instrument_selection
Determines the specific types of instruments required based on hazards and objectives

### calculate_instrument_quantities
Determines the total number of instruments required for the excavation

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
We have ground movement and hydrological risks in a critical excavation area of 500 square meters. What instruments do we need?
```

**Response:** 
```
For ground movement and hydrological risks in a critical area, you should deploy extensometers to monitor displacement and piezometers to monitor water pressure.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the number of instruments for a standard excavation of 1000 square meters with a 1.2 redundancy factor.
```

**Response:** 
```
For a standard excavation of 1000 square meters with a 1.2 redundancy factor, the total required instruments is 1200.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Define a data management plan for 50 instruments in a critical zone with hourly sampling.
```

**Response:** 
```
For 50 instruments in a critical zone with hourly sampling, the plan requires real-time telemetry, high-frequency data storage, and immediate alert thresholds for stability deviations.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the tool determine which instruments to use?**
The `plan_instrument_selection` tool analyzes the provided list of geotechnical hazards and monitoring objectives to select the most appropriate sensing technologies.

**Can I adjust the number of sensors for high-risk areas?**
Yes, the `calculate_instrument_quantities` tool uses the excavation importance level and a redundancy factor to ensure sufficient sensor density for critical zones.

**Does this tool help with sensor placement?**
Yes, the `generate_instrument_layout` tool provides a spatial configuration and placement strategy based on the excavation geometry and target density.
