Persium Case Study
Monitoring air quality and environmental conditions across the River Thames.
Monitoring air quality and environmental conditions across the River Thames.
The River Thames supports commercial shipping, passenger transport, logistics, and critical infrastructure, all generating emissions that interact with dense surrounding urban areas. Tidal conditions, changing wind patterns, and multiple vessel types make it difficult to understand how operations affect local air quality without continuous, location-specific data. Periodic sampling cannot capture the full picture.
What This Enables
Continuous monitoring across the Thames gives the Port of London Authority real-time visibility into how environmental conditions change throughout the day, by vessel type, operational activity, and wind direction. The deployment replaces isolated, periodic measurements with always-on intelligence that supports ongoing environmental management, transparent regulatory reporting, and evidence-based decisions across the river network.
Project Summary
Persium is deployed with the Port of London Authority to provide continuous, real-time air quality and environmental monitoring across the River Thames. Persium Pods measure PM, NO₂, wind, noise, and atmospheric conditions, giving the PLA live visibility into how vessel activity and operational patterns influence environmental conditions along the river. All data streams into Persium MapView for real-time geospatial visualisation, threshold alerts, and downloadable reporting.
The Challenge
The River Thames supports commercial shipping, passenger transport, logistics, and critical infrastructure, all generating emissions that interact with dense surrounding urban areas. Tidal conditions, changing wind patterns, and multiple vessel types make it difficult to understand how operations affect local air quality without continuous, location-specific data. Periodic sampling cannot capture the full picture.
Persium Deployment
Air Quality: NO₂, NO, O₃, SO₂, CO, CO₂, CH₄, PM1, PM2.5, PM10, NH₃, H₂S, CH₃SH, VOCs
Atmospherics: Temperature, Pressure, Humidity, Dew Point, Wind Speed, Wind Direction and Wind Chill.
The Persium Pod is fully configurable to match your monitoring needs. Select from a comprehensive range of air quality and atmospheric parameters to suit your environment, industry and regulatory requirements.
Pollutants Measured
All data streams into Persium MapView, a live geospatial platform that provides a connected, real-time view of environmental conditions along the river.
Through MapView, users can:
Monitor live conditions along the Thames corridor
Compare pollutant changes with wind direction and river activity
Configure threshold alerts
Analyse trends across locations and time periods
Generate downloadable reports
