Data logger calculator for mapping

How many data loggers do you need when mapping your GxP-regulated warehouse, cold room, or similar storage facility? And how do doors, gates, windows, and other risk zones affect the number of data loggers required?

Defining the number of data loggers for temperature mapping can be complex. Too few and you are non-compliant; too many and your costs and complexity go through the roof.

With this calculator, you can easily and accurately estimate the number of data loggers required for mapping for your specific use case.

The tool uses the specifics of your warehouse or similar facility to estimate the required number of loggers based on GxP requirements and WHO guidelines.

Simply input your facility's dimensions and risk zones, and it provides you with a preliminary calculation of the total number of data loggers required for your temperature mapping study.

The calculator is developed with a background in the WHO mapping guidelines and is designed for mapping warehouses or other storage rooms of 32x32 feet/10x10 meters or more (for smaller units, refer to the standard layout for temperature-controlled units).

Disclaimer: Although this calculator is based on GxP industry standards, no tool can make up for a thorough risk assessment based on your requirements and setup. The calculation should be used as a starting point for your risk assessment.

By applying this risk-based approach, a large number of loggers can often be deducted from the number shown in the calculator – typically around 25% – reducing both the cost and complexity of the mapping process. Contact our specialists to learn more.
