The Urban Scanner is a complete platform that provides detailed air quality information within urban landscapes. It achieves this by collecting and combing through a variety of information such as air pollution concentration, a 3D map of the city, traffic conditions, micro-weather patterns, and more.

Data is collected using a weather-proof, easily mountable device installed on the roof of a vehicle. The data is then processed using sophisticated AI-based algorithms in order to extract key information and correlate them to an air quality value at any location within a sampling environment. An advanced deep learning algorithm is then used to generate geospatial predictions of urban pollution. This means that with enough collected data, the system can provide pollution concentration values for locations that the Urban Scanner has not even sampled! The model can also be used to identify polluted zones and pinpoint the source(s) of local pollution.

The CTair Plus compact and continuous urban air quality and odour monitoring station is an analyzer developed by Scentroid.

The CTair+ monitoring station is a fixed unit that collects information from a variety of sensors and presents the collected data in an easy to understand graphical interface. It has been designed to be dispatched into a wider network of CTair+ units. Due to its lightweight design at 10 lbs, the CTair+ unit can easily be installed and mounted to a light fixture or utility pole. By applying information collected from multiple data points, the CTair+ allows the user to gain a complete understanding of the chemical compounds being monitored.

The CTair+ has been designed to hold 4 individual sensors. These can be specified from a list of over 50+ traceable chemical compounds. The CTair+ has been built to withstand temperatures ranging from -50 °C to 40 °C (with heating module). By resisting extreme weather conditions and by using the included mounting hardware, the CTair+ can be placed just about anywhere!

A federal law passed in 1970 and amended in 1974, 1977, and 1990 which forms the basis for the national air pollution control effort. Basic elements of the act include national ambient air quality standards for major air pollutants, mobile and stationary control measures, air toxics standards, acid rain control measures, and enforcement provisions.

Exposure is a combination of the amount of a pollutant in the air and the amount of time that a person stays in the presence of a pollutant. Exposure determines the level of risk associated with different levels of pollutants.
