About us

Monitoring is only useful if you can trust it.

Groundtruth exists because too many sensor projects end the same way: hardware installed with enthusiasm, then left to drift, drop offline, and quietly stop being believed. We build monitoring that stays honest — installed properly, maintained on schedule, and reported in plain terms.

"A reading you can't trust is worse than no reading at all. Every decision we make — which sensor, where it goes, how often it's checked — is about keeping the data believable."

There's no hand-off between a hardware vendor, an installer and a software company: one person is accountable for the number on your dashboard being right. PLACEHOLDER is also midway through a PDA in Ecological Surveying — and when he's not on site, he's usually still outdoors, mountain biking or in the workshop.

How we work

Four principles behind every deployment.

Measure what matters, not what's easy

The survey comes first. We agree what decision the data needs to support before a single sensor is specified — so you never pay for readings nobody uses.

Independence over inventory

We don't manufacture hardware, so we have no product line to push. The instrument that goes on your site is the one that best fits the reading, the exposure and the budget.

Maintained means believed

Calibration drift and flat batteries kill monitoring projects quietly. Scheduled maintenance and remote health checks are built into every package, not sold as extras.

Data in plain terms

Dashboards, reports and alerts are written for the person responsible for the site — not for another engineer. If a threshold is crossed, you'll know what it means and what to do.
