Description
The company SmartON is focused on new technologies (sensors), for example, to measure the air quality. The sensor units are custom-built from high-quality components that are fitted to the desired power supply and data transmission system. In the proposed project, The company has come to an arrangement with representatives from both Krnov Municipality and VŠB TU Ostrava for the implementation of monitoring of air pollution in the selected locations within the municipality. The aim is to prepare energy-independent units for PM10, PM2.5 and PM1 measurements, supplement them with temperature and humidity measurements and acquire 2 meteorological systems for the measurement of wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure. In cooperation with VŠB TU Ostrava, the applicant will check the sensor systems and perform their validation (adjustment of correction factors) in accordance with Annex 1A of the call. 20 sensor units will be prepared for monitoring in Krnov and another 5 will be used for continuous verification of the settings and as spare sensors. The monitoring itself will take place at 15 locations in the town. 5 of these locations will be measured in parallel with 2 sensor units. Locations affected with local heating plants will be selected in accordance with the call. The measurement data will be transmitted on-line to a public web portal and the data will be subsequently processed as required in points 5, 6, 7 and 8 of Annex 1A of the Call. Monitoring will be carried out in cooperation with the authorized group and the VŠB for a minimum of 90 days in the heating season 2023/2024.
