Claim 0:
1. A method for collecting data in a network having at least one consumption meter with a local sensor and the network being a supply network distributing a consumable good, the local sensor having at least one measuring element, a wired and/or radio communication means and a memory, which comprises the steps of:
providing, via the at least one measuring element, elementary measuring units in a form of raw measurement data corresponding to at least one physical or physicochemical value or at least one physical or physicochemical parameter;
determining in advance, conditions for generating time stampings using a correlation model for a determination of a measurement resolution of the local sensor;
generating, on a basis of the correlation model, the time stampings of successive raw measurement data in the local sensor;
storing the time stampings in the memory of the local sensor;
transmitting the time stampings over the wired and/or the radio communication means so that on a basis of the time stampings using the correlation model the raw measurement data collected by the at least one measuring element are reconstructed and evaluated; and
using the raw measurement data for network monitoring.
