The results presented in this paper provide federal, state, local, and tribal air monitoring and public health agencies with performance information on numerous commercially available non-regulatory instruments/sensors to address air quality monitoring data collection and interpretation challenges presented by wildland fire smoke. The presented accuracy, precision, and linearity performance metrics provides knowledge for the selection of new air quality monitors and insight on the deployment/use of existing monitors during wildland fire events to improve management oversight for professional practitioners/responders, and for communication of health messaging to the public.
