Real-time PM2.5 and PM10

Dust monitors measure airborne particulate matter, providing continuous, real-time insights into site conditions. 

The SiteHive Hexanode tracks key particle sizes, including PM2.5 and PM10, delivering precise data on airborne particulate matter. This allows you to monitor trends, identify sources of dust, and take action to manage site impacts effectively at all times.



Adapts to humid conditions

The SiteHive Hexanode Dust Standalone and Dust+Noise Device uses a built-in Temperature Humidity Gauge (THG) along with an advanced software modulator to detect and correct for humidity in real-time. 

This ensures that moisture in the air -  which can otherwise be measured as particulate matter - does not skew your readings.

 Even in conditions with high relative humidity or low dew points, your dust measurements remain accurate and reliable.

For additional context, SiteHive also provides weather data automatically. 

Nearby or on-site weather data from Open Weather Map, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) or your own weather station is integrated directly into your dashboard, giving you a complete picture of conditions when reviewing dust activity.



Event-triggered images & audio

Understanding the cause of dust events is critical. SiteHive Hexanode Devices make this easy by automatically capturing images and short audio clips whenever an event is recorded. This provides valuable context alongside your monitoring data, so you can quickly identify what’s happening on site.

Here’s what’s included with every exceedance:



Direction of Arrival (DoA) Mapping

The SiteHive Hexanode doesn’t just measure dust and noise - it helps you understand their origins. 

Direction of Arrival (DoA) mapping links dust and noise readings with wind direction data to pinpoint the likely source and track how activity is moving across your site.

How it works:

With DoA, you can go beyond just seeing levels -  you can understand and manage the actual sources of dust and noise impacting your site.
