== Overview ==
The '''Sensors and Monitoring Methods''' category addresses the operational diagnostic question: ''"How do we detect and measure indoor air quality?"'' Continuous monitoring is essential for identifying exposure peaks, but reference-grade instrumentation is prohibitively expensive and geographically sparse for dense indoor coverage.

Aligned with Work Package 3 (Task 3.1, Task 3.2) and Campaign C1, this section evaluates the applicability, accuracy, and best practices of consumer-grade and industrial low-cost sensors (LCS) alongside scientific reference equipment. It documents laboratory intercomparisons (conducted at TROPOS and IMROH facilities), sensor fusion methodologies, cross-sensitivities to humidity and temperature, and deployment protocols across European pilot cities.

=== Covered Topics ===

* '''Sensor Hardware & Platforms:''' Multi-sensor devices deployed across EDIAQI pilots (AirSensEUR, Sentinels, Thinnect, Canarin CAMI2, AirVisual Pro).
* '''Validation & Calibration:''' Procedures for sensor drift correction, environmental sensitivity testing, and laboratory calibration against reference spectrometers and gas analyzers.
* '''Measurement Protocols:''' Guidelines for sensor placement, temporal sampling intervals, and establishing Pilot City Labs as participatory observatories.
* '''Data Interoperability:''' Adherence to OGC SensorThings API standards and IoT security protocols to ensure FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data sharing.
