ALTISENSE

Overview

Industrial operators, municipalities and project developers must demonstrate what is in the air at the boundary and in nearby communities. We supply and integrate reference-method stations, compact sensor stations and mobile units, with the shelters, sampling, calibration and data systems that make results defensible to regulators.

How the system works

  • Continuously measures gaseous pollutants and particulate matter at fixed, boundary and community locations
  • Provides reference or equivalent-method data for regulatory reporting
  • Detects boundary exceedances early and correlates them with wind direction to identify sources
  • Quantifies dust deposition and TSP around construction, mining and bulk handling
  • Publishes validated data to dashboards, regulators and internal HSE teams

Turnkey scope. From monitoring network design and siting through shelter build, analyzer integration, calibration systems, telemetry, commissioning, data validation and multi-year operation with data-capture targets.

Typical system architecture

From the sensor in the field to the alarm on your phone: one engineered data path, designed, installed and supported by one team.

Frequently asked questions

Can you supply a mobile air quality station?

Yes. We build trailer- and vehicle-mounted stations with analyzers, a telescopic met mast, power and telemetry for surveys and incident response.

Do you maintain air quality stations?

Yes. We provide calibration, consumables, data validation and annual maintenance contracts with data capture targets.
