Environmental infrastructure

Sensors, connectivity and installation that bring local environmental measurements online — from partner devices to our own node.

Overview

From field hardware to data

Today the network runs on proven partner sensors. In parallel we are building our own outdoor node, so cities can scale to dozens of locations at lower cost.

At a glance

  • PurpleAir and Clarity sensors in the live network
  • RIKA wind instrumentation
  • Installation on existing poles and public buildings
  • Own SmartFlow node in development
Our own sensor

SmartFlow Node:
SEN66 + NB-IoT.

Designed in-house for large city networks: professional sensing, low-power cellular connectivity and solar operation.

  • Sensirion SEN66 — PM1, PM2.5, PM4, PM10, temperature, humidity, VOC, NOx and CO₂ in one module
  • NB-IoT connectivity — works without Wi-Fi, low data cost
  • Solar-ready power design for poles without electricity
  • Same platform — appears on the map and panel like every other sensor

Status: in development and field testing. Not yet part of the live network.
