Atmospheric and Chemical Monitoring Techniques

摘要

Monitoring method and arrangement includes sensor systems arranged at different locations and that detect or measure a property of air at its location, at least one of which is situated on a fixed asset, a monitoring facility, and a communication system coupled to each sensor system and which generates a signal indicative of data provided by the sensor system and sends the signal to the monitoring facility. Data provided by the sensor systems and sent via the communication system is analyzed at the monitoring facility in association with a location of each sensor system, provided for example, by a location determining system associated with each sensor system or the communication system. An alert system may be coupled to the monitoring facility and generates an alert based on the data analysis. One or more of the sensor systems may be incorporated into a cell phone or personal digital assistant.
