What is assessed?

From technical findings to one clear quality picture

The DNS Quality Assessment label summarises the site, setup, surroundings, metadata, management and fit-for-purpose usability. It complements — and does not replace — formal WMO classifications per parameter.

Research and analysis

  • ✓ Siting and representativeness
  • ✓ Technical setup and sensor exposure
  • ✓ Surroundings, obstakels en warmtebronnen
  • ✓ Metadata, management and traceability
  • ✓ Suitability for the intended purpose

You receive

  • ✓ Label A, B, C or S with explanation
  • ✓ Parameter-specific evidence
  • ✓ Known limitations and usage advice
  • ✓ Improvement priorities
  • ✓ Proposal for reassessment
Professional scope
The DNS label is a proprietary practical assessment method and is not an official WMO certificate or government quality mark.
