 Basic tools such as pliars, cutters, screwdrivers, allen keys and a gas torch are needed. Also, a multimeter is of great help. It is recommended to do the first construction steps in a workshop. Basic knowledge about electronics is required for the construction.

 ==== Installation in the field ====
-With the prepared sensors, installation in the field should be relatively easy for the short SMN, if a drilling has been prepared. Depending on whether a steel casing is inserted directly or a PVC casing is pre-drilled, the drilling process varies. Yet, the insertion of the sensors and installation of protection and Measurement Node is the same, nonwithstanding the drilling process (figure \ref{fig:inst}).

 === Drilling ===
-This process has been tested with various methods. We found the easiest method for shallow depths to be to directly hammer in a steel pipe with a jackhammer or a small ram core drill (figure \ref{fig:drill}). After this process, the pipe top usually is deformed and needs to be cut. For this process, a manual or battery powered saw is recommended. This method can be difficult in very blocky geology, where pre-drilling is preferred.

 === Installation of Sensor Protection ===
-For the sensor protection (step 3 in figure \ref{fig:meascon}), two variants are proposed, which vary in the way their visible parts on the surface are laid out. One solution, from here on called '\textbf{PVC Pipe and Foundation}', is the 'functional' approach, where looks are not as important. This is proposed for \textbf{remote, non-urban} regions. The second solution, '\textbf{Totem}' has been designed by the urban planning team at Leibniz-Universität Hannover (LUH) and is therefore focused on the incorporation of the sensor in the \textbf{urban context}.
