AIRMQKnow what you breathe
AirMQ is a community environmental monitoring project. Sensors installed by residents measure air quality, water level and weather, and the data is open to everyone
Data
Current and historical measurements from every public sensor - on the map, in the app and through the open API under CC BY 4.0
Map
Air quality, water level and background radiation in the cities where our sensors are installed

For sensor owners: add devices and installation sites, see charts and export data
panel.airmq.ccHardware
We design sensor devices that suit our project and any other monitoring task. The manufacturing and assembly documentation is open under CERN-OHL-P-2.0
AirMQ devices
Outdoor stations run on mains power or a solar panel and send data over WiFi. Where there is no WiFi, solar-powered LoRa nodes send data by radio to a gateway up to 12 km away, and the gateway passes it to the server over LTE or WiFi
Build your own
If you are handy with a soldering iron, build a sensor from our guide and connect it to AirMQ
About
We are a group of tech enthusiasts. AirMQ brings together people who care about the air they breathe, using modern sensors and Internet of Things technology
Air pollution is one of the main health risks: fine PM2.5 particles cause cardiovascular, respiratory and oncological disease. The more sensors there are, the better we know what is happening to the air in our cities
