Problem
Traditional air quality monitoring relies on a limited number of expensive monitoring stations, failing to capture the hyperlocal variations in pollution levels within urban environments and industrial areas. This lack of granular data hinders effective mitigation strategies and informed decision-making for public health and environmental compliance.
Solution
Bettair Cities offers a high-resolution air quality monitoring platform leveraging a dense network of IoT-enabled sensors and advanced data analytics. The platform utilizes static nodes equipped with electrochemical gas sensors and optical particle counters to measure a comprehensive range of pollutants, noise levels, and environmental parameters. Data is transmitted via various connectivity options (3G/4G/5G, NB-IoT, LoRaWAN, Ethernet) to a cloud-based platform, where proprietary post-processing algorithms, incorporating unsupervised machine learning, ensure high accuracy without in-situ calibration. The resulting insights enable precise pollution mapping, identification of emission sources, and evaluation of mitigation efforts.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes smart cities, smart ports, third-party integrators, and research institutions seeking accurate, large-scale air quality data for informed decision-making and pollution mitigation.
