Comma-separated list of fields needed for creating QC reports.

Source: R/PurpleAir_API.R

Character string with default PurpleAir field names used in pat_downloadParaseRawData(). These fields are sufficient for most QC algorithms and include most of the "information and status" and "environmental" fields.

PurpleAir_PAT_QC_FIELDS

Format

String with comma-separated field names

Note

The PM2.5 fields included here are the "_atm_" fields recommended by PurpleAir for outdoor sensors while those used in PurpleAir_PAT_EPA_HOURLY_FIELDS include the "_cf_1_" versions as specified by the EPA correction algorithm.

The PurpleAir reference docs describe the two different variants as: "CF=1 variant for indoor, ATM variant for outdoor devices" which is why we include the "_atm_" versions in this set. For the purposes of identifying when the A and B channels are in agreement, either version is fine.

Included fields:


[1] "rssi"        "uptime"      "pa_latency"  "memory"      "humidity"
[6] "temperature" "pressure"    "pm2.5_atm"   "pm2.5_atm_a" "pm2.5_atm_b"
