Network Visualization
Network Data:
• AQY data pushed to cloud server in
real-time
• Heatmap generated using inverse-
distance weighted interpolation (via R – gstat, raster, Leaflet)
• Wind data downloaded via
MesoWest API (https://mesowest.utah.edu/,
https://synopticlabs.org/api/mesonet)
• Wind data interpolated as indicative
indication of conditions

Event Detection
10-minute data averaging
![Page 10: Low-cost air quality sensor network deployment and data ... · Low-cost air quality sensor network deployment and data analysis Kyle A. Alberti1,2, Geoff Henshaw1, Hamesh Patel2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042812/5faacf25e6179f2aa77fa005/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
High Spatial and Temporal Resolution
AQY 10-minute data AQY - hourly data Reference - hourly
• Higher time resolution provides more information about the event
• Higher density detects more isolated events

What Next?
With a large deployed network - developing methods:
• How do we remotely validate data from an instrument?
• How do we remotely calibrate the network?
• How do we analyse data from a network like this?
