User account

Within your user account, you can modify your personal information and your login details.

The account manager of an organisation can adjust company data such as the name and language.

In the Team tab, the account manager can add a new team member, and either remove or edit an existing one.

A ‘Project Manager’ can create and edit projects, while a ‘User’ can only view projects and manage samplings.

Plan Project

In the “Plan Project” section you’ll find a list of all your projects, each marked with an intuitive traffic-light color code indicating its status. Inactive projects are listed under “Archive.”

Create a new project by defining the project name and duration, then add the pollutants you want to measure. Choose measuring locations from an existing list or create new ones.

Indicate field blanks or reference samplings and select the team with access to the project.

Finally, get an overview of samplers and additional materials needed. After saving, create a planning protocol and send us a quotation request based on your material requirements.

Now you’re all set, to kick off your samplings!

Sampling

While out in the field, head to the Samplings section where you’ll find a list of all your projects with active samplings.

Choose your project and click on the sampling site where you’re currently located. Select the sampler type, fill in the labels and press “Start”.

Move on to the next sampling site and repeat the steps until you’ve exposed all samplers at all sampling sites.

Once the exposure duration has elapsed,return to your project to stop the samplings. Now, you have the option to start the next one immediately or choose to do so later. Repeat this process for all samplers at all sampling sites to conclude one sampling period.

Once all sampling periods have been completed, the project is considered finished.
