Industrial Impact & Environmental Equity Sensor Unit
Deploying sensor networks to monitor industrial environmental impacts and advance environmental equity.
Unit Mission
The Industrial Impact & Environmental Equity Sensor Unit deploys sensor networks to monitor industrial environmental impacts — operating air quality, water quality, and noise monitoring systems near industrial facilities to document pollution levels, identify violations, and provide the community-level data needed to advance environmental equity. The unit applies environmental monitoring, sensor technology, and environmental justice to deploy low-cost sensor networks that empower communities to document industrial impacts and advocate for their right to a clean environment.
Key Functions
Sensor Deployment
Deploying community environmental sensor networks — installing low-cost air quality, water quality, and noise monitors near industrial facilities to provide communities with real-time data on pollution levels and industrial impacts.
Impact Assessment
Assessing industrial environmental impacts — analyzing sensor data to characterize pollution levels, identify emission sources, and document the environmental impacts of industrial facilities on surrounding communities.
Community Empowerment
Empowering communities with environmental data — providing communities with the monitoring data, technical support, and advocacy tools needed to document industrial impacts and demand accountability from polluters and regulators.
