Low-cost sensors collect large amounts of data. Some sensors distributed through the US EPA STAR Grant program have been
running continuously for over a year, recording data every minute (that’s over 500,000 rows of data!). For this reason data
analysis tools and software can be very helpful. In this guide we provide some brief instructions to help community scientists
interact with the data they are collecting as well as some questions to help guide their analysis.
