Abstract
- This article describes location aware temperature profiles from six strawberry shipments across the continental United States. Three pallets were instrumented in each shipment with three vertically placed loggers to take a longitudinal and latitudinal snapshot of 9 strategically different locations (including the top, middle and bottom layers of the pallets placed in the back, middle and the front of the shipping container) for a combined 54 measurement points across shipments of varying lengths. The sensors were instrumented in the field, right at the point of harvest, recorded temperatures every every 5 to 10 minutes depending on the shipment, and uploaded their data periodically via cellular radios on each device. The data is a result of significant collaboration between stakeholders from farmers to distributors to retailers to academics, which can play an important role for researchers and educators in food engineering, cold-chain, machine learning, and data mining, as well as in other disciplines related to food and transportation.
