About
What is FieldKit?
FieldKit is three things.
-
1. Modular, low-cost hardware for environmental sensing
Accurate environmental sensors can be expensive and complicated to operate. FieldKit stations are built to be modular and our mobile app makes configuration and maintenance easier than many other tools available. With Build Your Own products starting at $150 and configurable based on what you want to measure, FieldKit stations are priced to be accessible to anyone.
-
2. A platform for managing, analyzing and sharing data about the world around you
FieldKit isn’t just about data collection. Our platform lets you quickly and easily visualize station data, discover trends and patterns, and share your findings with anyone. We make it easy to download your data in a variety of useful formats, so that FieldKit can play nicely with your existing tools.
-
3. A community of environmental care, using data to document change and work for a better future
Data works better together. FieldKit is dedicated to supporting a strong community of users and developers, building both local and global connections. On the FieldKit community forum, you can engage in discussions with scientists, educators, tech experts and curious individuals – all working to better understand and advocate for the world around them.
