Different spaces need different expectations
A gallery, display case and collection store may sit in the same building but need very different monitoring context.
Museums
Environmental monitoring that follows the collection, not just the sensor.
Bring galleries, display cases, collection stores, temporary exhibitions and manual checks into one environmental record, with alerts and evidence that stay connected to the place they belong.

The monitoring challenge
Environmental monitoring needs to reflect the way the collection is actually used.
The response matters as much as the alert
Collections teams need to know what changed, what was checked and what happened afterwards, not just that a threshold was crossed.
Existing monitoring should remain useful
Museums often have a mixture of connected sensors, standalone loggers and manual records gathered over many years.
How LÆFAN helps
Bring the readings, the collection context and the response together.
Give every space its own context
Environmental Profiles, rooms, cases and stores keep readings attached to the right collection environment.
Turn excursions into a retained response
Alerts, investigations and Spot Records keep the human response alongside the environmental history.
Bring old and new monitoring together
Connected sources, imports and manual readings can contribute to the same record without pretending they were collected in the same way.
Keep evidence ready for later
Reports draw from the retained environmental record so the story behind a graph is still understandable months later.
