A system, method, and apparatus for gas exposure monitoring of a work area are described. The apparatus may include a processor; a memory to store a map of a work area; and a communication interface to communicate with sensor devices in the work area. The sensor devices may detect and transmit information identifying a concentration of gas in the work area. The processor may determine coverage of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices. The processor may determine accuracy of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices. The processor may generate a report depicting the coverage and accuracy of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices.

1. A method for providing real time locating and gas exposure monitoring, the method comprising: receiving, by an interface, information identifying concentration levels of gases in a work area detected by multiple sensor devices in the work area;testing, by a processor, coverage of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices;generating, by the processor, a report for the work area, the report comprising results of the coverage testing represented by a map of the work area; andtransmitting, by the interface, the report for receipt by a computing device. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: analyzing, by the processor, information identifying historical concentrations of gases in the work area;predicting a concentrations of gases at one or more locations in the work area based on the analysis; andincluding, in the report, the predictions of concentrations of gases at the locations in the work area. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving, by the interface, location information of a sensor device associated with a user, wherein the location information identifies the locations where the user has been in the work area;determining, by the processor, a gas exposure level of the user based on the concentrations of gas in the work area; andincluding, in the report, the gas exposure level of the user in the work area. 4. The method of claim 3, further comprising: analyzing location information of the user and the concentrations of gas in the work area over a period of time;identifying the gas exposure level of the user over the period of time; andgenerating a visual display of the gas exposure level of the user over the period of time. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising: periodically testing, by the processor, accuracy of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices; andincluding, in the report, results of the accuracy testing of the sensor devices. 6. The method of claim 5, further comprising: alerting, by the processor, in response to the accuracy of the gas detection of the sensor devices being below a compliance value associated with the respective sensor devices. 7. The method of claim 5, further comprising: alerting, by the processor, in response to the accuracy of the gas detection at one or more locations being below a compliance value associated with the respective locations. 8. The method of claim 5, further comprising: displaying, by a display unit, a map of the work area representing the accuracy of the gas detection in the work area at respective locations of the sensor devices. 9. An apparatus comprising: a memory configured to store a map of a work area;a communication interface configured to communicate with sensor devices in the work area, the sensor devices detecting and transmitting information identifying a concentration of gas in the work area;a processor configured to determine coverage of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices;the processor configured to determine accuracy of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices; andthe processor configured to generate a report comprising the coverage and accuracy of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices. 10. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the communication interface is further configured to transmit the report over a communication network. 11. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the processor is configured to include the coverage and accuracy of the gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices on the map of the work area in the report. 12. The apparatus of claim 9, further comprising: a visual interface configured to display the map of the work area with the coverage and accuracy of the gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices. 13. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the processor is further configured to: analyze historical trend of the coverage and accuracy of the gas detection; identify decrease in the coverage and/or the accuracy of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices based on the analysis; andindicate, via the visual interface, the decrease in the coverage and/or the accuracy of gas detection. 14. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the sensor devices include stationary sensor devices and portable sensor devices. 15. A computer-implemented method for providing real-time locating and gas exposure monitoring, the method comprising: receiving, by an interface, information identifying concentrations of gas at one or more locations in a work area, the concentrations detected by multiple sensor devices at the respective one or more locations in the work area;periodically testing, by a processor, accuracies of gas detection at the one or more locations in the work area;displaying, by a display unit, a map of the work area representing the accuracies of the gas detection at the one or more locations in the work area; andalerting, by the processor, in response to the accuracies of the gas detection at the one or more locations being below a compliance value. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the accuracies of the gas detection in the work area are displayed on the display unit as being represented by respective colors. 17. The method of claim 15, further comprising: periodically testing, by the processor, coverage of gas detection in the work area by the sensor devices; anddisplaying, by the display unit, the coverage of the gas detection in the work area at respective locations of the sensor devices on the map of the work area. 18. The method of claim 17, further comprising: alerting, by the processor, in response to the coverage of the gas detection at the one or more locations being below a coverage compliance value. 19. The method of claim 17, wherein the alerting associated with the accuracy and/or coverage at the one or more locations comprises highlighting the one or more locations on the map. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein the sensor devices include stationary sensor devices and portable sensor devices.
