Systems and methods are described for controlling acquisition of sensor information, including: one or more physiological sensors and a computing device including a processor programmed to query the physiological sensors to measure one or more physiological parameters of an individual in response to at least one flag indicating a need to measure the one or more physiological parameters receive a set of sensor values from the physiological sensors assign a quality value to the set of sensor values received from the physiological sensors retain the set of sensor values if the assigned quality value of the set of sensor values meets or exceeds a minimum quality value threshold and update the at least one flag if the assigned quality value of the set of sensor values meets or exceeds the minimum quality value threshold.
