Abstract
Monitoring devices, such as air particle counters, having mesh network capabilities are described for implementation in environmental monitoring within a facility. The air particle counters run samples at various facility locations based on a standard operating procedure (SOP). Each air particle counter can opportunistically connect with one or more other air particle counters using mesh networking. Data from samples run by and any new or updated SOP received at the air particle counters can be distributed via database replication across the other air particle counters using the mesh networking such that each air particle counter has a copy of the sample data and a current SOP within its database. A dashboard user interface displaying a hierarchical representation of the SOP and an associated compliance status with the SOP can be generated and updated based on data received from the air particle counters to facilitate SOP management.
