Abstract
A system for monitoring an aircraft interior may include a multiplicity of sensors each placed at a selected location of a plurality of locations within the aircraft interior. Each sensor is configured to monitor a condition in an associated area of the aircraft interior. The system may also include a server onboard the aircraft. The onboard server is configured to receive data from each of the multiplicity of sensors and to control operation of each of the multiplicity of sensors. The system may also include a router onboard the aircraft. The onboard router is configured to communicate with a router off-board the aircraft and to transfer data from the onboard server to the off-board router. The off-board router is associated with a ground monitoring facility that is configured to analyze data from each of the multiplicity of sensors, check or compare the data to reference data and depending upon any levels being exceeded an appropriate alert may be generated.
