Sensor Data

Link to the live sensor data coming from schools in south-east Scotland.

Poster to explain that the data used in the visualisations is experimental.

Please note that the learners are experimenting with these sensors, so the data returned cannot be used as an accurate depiction of a school environment.

For example, whilst learning about CO2, the school pupils may blow into the sensors, place them in an area with a high concentration of CO2, or indeed in covered external spaces with only external ambient levels.

Similarly, some learners have experimented with temperature gradients across classrooms, placing one sensor on a radiator and the other on the window sill.  A class from a West Lothian school has had one of their sensors place in a crocodile enclosure at a local zoo, comparing that data with their classroom.

Data collected from school sensors is made public through this and other websites for learning and teaching purposes. 

The sensor data that we expose contains no personal content.
