Increase the indoor comfort of historic homes in the city of Chiang Mai along with the improvement of quality of life.
To ensure continuous monitoring of indoor air quality, fifteen AirWits PM sensors have been integrated into the OCTOBUS IoT Platform and installed in historic homes in Chiang Mai. These commercial sensors are specifically designed to measure air quality effectively.[1]
Data on indoor air quality is transmitted every 10 minutes via Sigfox, a global network operator focused on the Internet of Things. Sigfox specializes in low power, long-range, and small data solutions, providing an end-to-end connectivity service that efficiently sends data to the OCTOBUS cloud.
Once in the cloud, the air quality data can be accessed and monitored on various mobile devices. If air quality levels reach critical thresholds, the system automatically sends notifications, enabling prompt and appropriate actions to be taken.
The OCTOBUS IoT Platform helps to improve the quality of life of Chiang Mai citizens and contributes to energy efficiency measures. Citizen involvement is crucial to the IoT project monitoring indoor air quality in Chiang Mai's historic homes. Residents provide valuable feedback, enhancing system refinement and raising awareness about air quality issues. Access to real-time data empowers citizens to make informed decisions about their environments, while their participation in decision-making boosts the project's acceptance and impact.
