It produces a CSV file containing descriptive statistics for each sensor you select (up to a maximum of 50), calculated over the date range you choose. Use this report when you want to compare a large number of sensors at once, for example: - Reviewing conditions across every space in a building before an annual report - Comparing cases or storage areas to find the most and least stable locations - Pulling minimum, maximum, and mean values for a loan or exhibition period - Summarizing a season or quarter without exporting every individual reading **Note** Summary Statistics returns one summary row per sensor and reading type. To work with individual readings, use the CSV environmental data export instead. ### Before You Begin Ensure you have: - A Conserv Cloud account with access to the Reports page - Sensors that reported data during the date range you plan to use - Filled any gaps in Conserv SCS devices if needed (See [Infill Missing Data](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/infill-missing-data?hsLang=en)) ### Generate a Summary Statistics Report 1. Sign in to Conserv Cloud. 2. Select **Reports** in the left navigation. 3. Select the **CREATE REPORTS** tab. 4. Locate the **Summary Statistics** card and click **create report**. *The Summary Statistics dialog opens.* 5. In the **Sensors** field, search for and select the sensors or spaces you want to include. *Each selection appears as a chip above the search field. Click the X on a chip to remove one selection, or click **Clear** to remove all selections.* 6. Under **Date range**, enter a **Start Date** and an **End Date**. 7. Under **Reading types**, select the checkbox for each reading type you want in the report. 8. Click **GENERATE CSV**. *The CSV downloads to your computer with a file name in the format summary-statistics\_YYYYMMDD-YYYYMMDD.csv.* **Tip** Selecting a space includes all the sensors in that space, which is faster than selecting each sensor individually. ### Reading Types Select any combination of the following reading types: - Temperature - Relative Humidity - Dewpoint - Illuminance - UV **Note** A sensor only produces rows for the reading types it measures. If you select a reading type that a sensor does not measure, no row appears for that combination. *Conserv SCS devices only have illuminance over serial c006000 and UV over c008500. Freezer sensors and Outdoor sensors only have Temperature and Relative Humidity. Cryo sensors only have Temperature.* ### Understand the CSV The file opens in any spreadsheet application. It contains a short header block followed by one row per sensor and reading type.![](https://app.circle.so/rails/active_storage/representations/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaHBCT1RrZWdzPSIsImV4cCI6bnVsbCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--3f97c668f72526e3150f3cdde5b0d225e3169157/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaDdDRG9MWm05eWJXRjBTU0lJY0c1bkJqb0dSVlE2RkhKbGMybDZaVjkwYjE5c2FXMXBkRnNIYVFJNEJEQTZDbk5oZG1WeWV3WTZDbk4wY21sd1ZBPT0iLCJleHAiOm51bGwsInB1ciI6InZhcmlhdGlvbiJ9fQ==--7535ef66ff04b52d1ea165e904a77a64f9cc7389/image.png) #### Report Header - **Date range:** The start and end dates used for the calculations - **Timezone:** The time zone the date range was applied in - **Generated:** The date and time the report was created #### Statistics Columns - **Sensor:** The name of the sensor - **Space:** The space the sensor is assigned to - **Reading Type:** The reading type the row summarizes, for example Temperature - **Min:** The lowest reading recorded during the date range - **Max:** The highest reading recorded during the date range - **Mean:** The average of all readings during the date range - **Range:** The difference between Max and Min - **Std Dev:** The standard deviation of the readings, which indicates how much conditions varied - **Unit:** The unit of measure for the row, for example °F or % **Note** A sensor that reports more than one reading type appears on more than one row, with one row for each reading type you selected. ### Limits and Considerations - You can include up to 50 sensors in a single report. - Statistics are calculated only from readings that exist in the selected date range. Gaps in data, for example from a sensor that was offline, reduce the number of readings included in the calculation. - Statistics are calculated in the time zone shown in the report header. - The report is delivered as a CSV file. It is not saved in Conserv Cloud, so generate a new report whenever you need updated numbers. **Caution** Compare Std Dev values with the number of readings in mind. A sensor with a large data gap can appear more stable than it was, because fewer readings contributed to the calculation. --- - [Introduction](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/introduction?hsLang=en) - [Technical Details and Specifications](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/technical-details-and-specifications?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Sensor Specifications](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/technical-details-and-specifications?hsLang=en#sensor-specifications) - [Other Sensor Information](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/technical-details-and-specifications?hsLang=en#other-sensor-information) - [Gateway Specifications](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/technical-details-and-specifications?hsLang=en#gateway-specifications) - [Conserv Cloud Specifications](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/technical-details-and-specifications?hsLang=en#conserv-cloud-specifications) - [Installation and Setup](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/installation-and-setup?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Initial Setup](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/installation-and-setup?hsLang=en#initial-setup) - [Add, Move, Swap and Merge Sensors](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/installation-and-setup?hsLang=en#add-move-swap-and-merge-sensors) - [Configure Conserv Cloud](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/configure-conserv-cloud?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Organize and Manage Locations and Spaces](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/configure-conserv-cloud?hsLang=en#organize-and-manage-locations-and-spaces) - [Import Data](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/configure-conserv-cloud?hsLang=en#import-data) - [Configure Levels](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/configure-conserv-cloud?hsLang=en#configure-levels) - [Configure Events and Alerts](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/configure-conserv-cloud?hsLang=en#configure-events-and-alerts) - [Profile and Account Management](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/profile-and-account-management?hsLang=en) - [Manage Sensors](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/manage-sensors?hsLang=en) - [Integrated Pest Management](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/integrated-pest-management?hsLang=en) - [Analytics](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/analytics?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Manage Analytics Data](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/analytics?hsLang=en#manage-analytics-data) - [Preservation Metrics](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/analytics?hsLang=en#preservation-metrics) - [Mobile app](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/mobile-app?hsLang=en) - [Troubleshooting](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Troubleshoot Conserv Cloud Issues](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#troubleshoot-conserv-cloud-issues) - [Troubleshoot Sensor Issues](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#troubleshoot-sensor-issues) - [Troubleshoot Gateway Issues](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#troubleshoot-gateway-issues) - [Troubleshoot Conserv Cloud Mobile App Issues](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#troubleshoot-conserv-cloud-mobile-app-issues) - [Community, Support, and Updates](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge/community-support-and-updates?hsLang=en) - [Support](https://support.conserv.io/knowledge) - [Blog](https://support.conserv.io/blog) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://support.conserv.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Cnsrv_wmM_mix_rgb-1.png?width=108&height=24&name=Cnsrv_wmM_mix_rgb-1.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://conserv.io) Copyright © 2026, Conserv Solutions Inc.
