VortexIOT specialises in cost-effective retro-fit solutions for monitoring air quality, pollution and performance of high value assets. It generates and transmits sensor data through its own secure mesh network to its own Intelligent Edge gateway that relays meaningful data to an open platform in order to enable detection, insight, control and M2M interaction using in-house or 3rd party analytics and visualisation.

Practical applications are in improving operational performance and environmental compliance in cities, industrial sites, oil & gas plants & ports and in remote condition and Vehicle2Infrastructure monitoring for railways, airports and cityscapes.
