Sensing-as-a-Service℠ air quality monitoring

Clarity’s modular system can monitor a wide range of pollutants, including PM_2.5, PM10, nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), and black carbon — key indicators of urban air pollution from traffic, industry, and wildfires. Our platform also supports wind and meteorological data to better understand pollution movement and source attribution.

Clarity sensors are designed for rapid, low-effort deployment. They arrive pre-configured and can be installed in under 10 minutes using basic tools. Solar power and cellular connectivity eliminate the need for grid power or Wi-Fi, and the system requires minimal ongoing maintenance thanks to its rugged, weatherproof design.

Yes — Clarity sensors automatically transmit data to the cloud via cellular networks, making it accessible anywhere through the Clarity Dashboard. Users can view live maps, configure alerts, download reports, and even share public data with stakeholders or communities through tools like OpenMap.

Absolutely. Clarity offers optional Add-On Services like Data Analysis reports, as well as ongoing customer success support. Our team can help you make sense of trends, compare your data to regulatory standards, and generate actionable insights for planning, policy, or public communication.

While Clarity is optimized for outdoor air quality monitoring, our customers have occasionally used sensors in semi-enclosed or transitional spaces like parking garages, warehouses, and industrial facilities. However, for strictly indoor applications, we generally recommend dedicated indoor sensors designed for controlled environments.

Clarity’s air quality monitoring network fills critical gaps in traditional regulatory systems, which are often sparse due to cost. While reference monitors provide high-accuracy data at a few fixed locations, Clarity sensors can be deployed at scale, offering hyperlocal insight at street level—near schools, traffic corridors, or underserved communities.

The calibrated data from Clarity Node-S air quality sensors integrates seamlessly with regulatory data, enhancing resolution and enabling real-time alerts for pollution events like wildfires or industrial spikes. Clarity also supports OpenMap, which can combine official and supplemental sensor data into a single public or agency-facing view.

Cities like London have adopted this hybrid model—pairing a few reference stations with many low-cost Clarity nodes to build a more responsive, community-scale air monitoring network.In short, regulatory monitors establish the baseline; Clarity provides the resolution and reach needed for targeted public health action.
