Use a networked swarm of sensor carrying drones to collect hard point sensor data and relay it to the primary computing platform. Also to do overhead image capture of the plants and dirt in multiple spectrum. Bringing the data in for analysis and sending commands to make changes to hardware in the field to optimise delivery.

(was gonna be a long post till I started over. unlike consumer electronics, corporate cable electronics is a you figure it out sort of thing. no appreciable support. the cable companies use proprietary software in the head end and on the boxes. developed in house this software dictates user experience and features. motorola as owned by google would have no say in the direction cable will go. not to mention comcast for example can use scientific atlanta boxes, now cisco boxes if they want to move away from google. imho google wants a way to push semi unlimited data plans if only by taking advantage of its internal network and ad $ generated by its phone users

EPA Quashed Report Skeptical of Global Warming 1057
theodp writes "CNET reports that less than two weeks before the EPA formally submitted its pro-carbon dioxide regulation recommendation to the White House, an EPA center director quashed a 98-page report that warned against making hasty 'decisions based on a scientific hypothesis that does not appear to explain most of the available data.' In an e-mail message (pdf) to a staff researcher on March 17, the EPA official wrote: 'The administrator and the administration has decided to move forward...and your comments do not help the legal or policy case for this decision.' The employee was also ordered not to 'have any direct communication' with anyone outside his small group at EPA on the topic of climate change, and was informed his report would not be shared with the agency group working on the topic. In a statement, the EPA took aim at the credentials of the report's author, Alan Carlin (BS Physics-Caltech, PhD Econ-MIT), describing him as 'not a scientist.' BTW, the official who chastised Carlin also found himself caught up in a 2005 brouhaha over mercury emissions after top EPA officials ordered the findings of a Harvard University study stripped from public records."
