Observations

 

We collect observations at sites around the city, leveraging the Waggle Edge Computing platform. These observations give us insight into urban heat islands, extreme rainfall events, and local-scale air quality events. Each site collects observations such as:

  • Temperature
  • Moisture
  • Rain rate and accumulation
  • Air quality

If you are interested in learning how to access real-time-data from CROCUS, we encourage you to look into our instrument cookbooks, which detail the instruments, how to work data from the instruments, and free open-source software examples to create your own visualizations!
