Entry in our database

For entry of a sensor into the database we need some information, In order for the sensor to become a part of the network

  • Chip ID of the ESP8266 (NodeMCU) -> comes as number in the WLAN (Feinstaubsensor- ...), the number after "Feinstaubsensor-" in the access point name
  • Your address: Country, city, street, building, gps coordinates.
  • Description of where the sensor is located: Such as height above ground, street side, high traffic, open space, front or back of the house, floor, balcony yes / no (to estimate how exposed the sensor is). if possible images, where the sensor hangs.

Send us this data via e-mail to sensors@codeforafrica.org . If the sensor is entered in the database, you will receive the corresponding IDs of the individual measured values, with which you can then find your sensor on our map, for example.
