Temperature and Humidity Layers – Overview and Usage

The Temperature and Humidity features in the Dryad Site Management App allow you to monitor environmental conditions both across your entire site and at individual sensor level..

You can view real-time temperature and relative humidity:

• Directly on the map (site-wide overview)

• Within each sensor’s Device Info graphs (detailed historical view)

These layers display live temperature and relative humidity readings from your deployed sensors, helping you better understand site conditions at a glance

Where to Find It

1. On the Map (Site-Wide View)

You can visualize environmental conditions across the whole site using the Temperature and Humidity map layers.

To access:

1. Open your deployed site in Site Management

2. Go to the map view

3. Enable the Temperature and/or Humidity layers from the layer panel on the right side

Once enabled, readings will appear directly on the map.

What You See on the Map

• Humidity (%)

• Temperature

  • Displayed in °C (Celsius) or

  • °F (Fahrenheit) depending on your account settings

Zoom Behavior

The layer adapts dynamically based on your zoom level:

When viewing the site from a broader perspective sensor readings are grouped into clusters. 

As you zoom into the map clusters expand into individual sensor readings.

This allows you to move seamlessly from high-level overview to detailed location-specific monitoring.

2. In the Sensor Device Info (Per-Sensor Graphs)

You can also view temperature and humidity data for each individual sensor.

To access:

1. Select a sensor on the map

2. Open the Device Info panel

3. View the Temperature and Humidity graphs

This detailed view shows:

• The actual temperature readings sent by the sensor

• The actual humidity readings sent by the sensor

• A median line, representing the median environmental value over time

Median Line and Missing Data

If a sensor temporarily stops sending temperature and humidity data:

• The live data line will not appear for that period

• The median line will remain visible

This ensures the graph continues to provide contextual reference even when data transmission is temporarily interrupted.

Important: Fire detection is not affected if temperature and humidity data are temporarily unavailable, as these values are not used in the fire detection model.

How It Helps

The Temperature and Humidity Layer enables you to:

• Monitor real-time environmental conditions across your site

• Identify localized dry or hot areas

• Compare microclimate variations within large deployments

The combination of site-wide visualization and per-sensor analysis gives you a complete environmental monitoring solution.

Important Notes

• Values reflect the latest available sensor readings.

• Displayed units (°C or °F) follow your account settings.

• For deeper analysis, you can open an individual sensor to view detailed historical graphs.

• If a sensor stops sending data temporarily, only the median line will appear for that period in the graph.
