Open Device Deployment and Public Data Sharing
Bring your devices onto an open air quality network.
Vertex helps organizations and device owners add monitors, manage visibility, and share public air quality data through AirQo without vendor lock-in.

A simpler path from device ownership to public impact
Air quality devices are deployed by cities, universities, NGOs, and individual teams, but their data is often fragmented or hidden from broader use. Vertex closes that gap with one platform for onboarding, organization visibility, and network participation.

Open onboarding
Register, organize, and expose devices through one workflow
Vertex gives teams a structured way to add AirQo devices or import external devices into the network while maintaining a clear view of organization assets, sites, and sharing status.
That makes it easier to move from private device ownership to broader public contribution without losing operational control.
What makes Vertex useful
Vertex connects device deployment with public visibility through a single platform.
Guided device onboarding
Register sensors individually or through bulk import workflows.

Download Vertex Desktop
Get the Vertex desktop application for Windows to manage your devices and air quality data locally.

Visibility and sharing
Manage device visibility in a way that makes public contribution practical
Vertex is designed to make sharing less abstract. It helps organizations understand which devices are visible, which cohorts are public, and how their network appears inside the broader AirQo ecosystem.
This is what makes the platform useful beyond onboarding alone: it links deployment, public visibility, and future data reuse in one place.
Built for organizations that want a more open and visible network
Vertex is useful wherever the challenge is not only collecting readings, but making those readings accessible, reusable, and easier to contribute to public environmental understanding.
