IoT Solutions
Pollution is one of the biggest problems affecting people’s quality of life in cities.
In an increasingly contaminated world, being aware of air and water quality is often problematic. Thanks to IoT technology, key parameters can be monitored and acted upon.
By 2050, outdoor air pollution (particulate matter and ground-level ozone) is predicted to become the leading cause of environment-related deaths worldwide.
What Smart Environment projects look for…
Increases
Reduces
Sound interesting… And which are the main applications of this technology?
Cities
The European Environment Agency started to encourage Cities to monitor the Air Quality Index and then inform citizens about air quality, measuring NO2, NO, CO, O3, SO2, PM2.5 and PM10.
Farms
Real-time monitoring of emissions on farms by measuring CH4 (methane) and NH3 (ammonia) levels.
Rivers, lakes and seas
Monitoring pollution in rivers, lakes and seas to preserve flora and fauna.
Factories
Industries and factories (along with households) are one of the main sources of PM (particulate matter emissions).
Villages
Controling air quality in villages to attract and promote sustainable tourism, while reducing the impact on the environment.

Smart Environment are solutions designed to detect different parameters and pollutant gases that affect air quality and water quality monitoring.
Interoperability:
Any cloud platform: compatibility with city council platforms
High accuracy sensors from specialized manufacturers are integrated to offer the greatest efficiency
Calibrated gases sensors are useful to measure the exact value in PPM’s of a gas concentration, it is designed to be used in applications requiring accurate readings and exact concentrations
Particle Matter Sensor – commonly known as “Dust Sensor” – integrated. This sensor allows to measure PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 particles. This sensor comes also calibrated from the factory
High accuracy water quality sensors from prestigious manufacturers such as Aqualabo
Predictive and preventive models can be built
Noise level and meteorological parameters measurement
Solar powered. Long life battery
