# Create a Person of Interest for Air Quality sensors

Verkada cameras allow you to create a Person of Interest (POI) using one or more photos of a person’s face. When paired with an Air Quality sensor, cameras can help identify and track nearby individuals during specific air quality alerts.

{% hint style="danger" %}

* The camera paired to the sensor must have People Analytics enabled to support POI creation and people tracking from Air Quality sensors.
* Sensor readings must be configured with triggers to generate events. See [Air Quality Sensor Settings](/air-quality/sensor-data/air-quality-sensor-settings.md) for more information.

## Enable Air Quality People Insights

To activate People Insights on your Air Quality sensors, you first need to activate the feature for your organization.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**In Verkada Command, go to All Products > Admin.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**In the left navigation, select Feature Manager.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Under Air Quality > Sensor People Insights, select Enabled from the dropdown menu.**
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Create a Person of Interest profile

### People analytics page

{% hint style="warning" %}
You can create a Person of Interest profile from the People page. Organizations with POI profiles already created will automatically start tracking Air Quality POI. See [Create a Person of Interest](/verkada-cameras/analytics/people-analytics/create-a-person-of-interest.md) for more information.
{% endhint %}

### Air Quality events page

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**In Verkada Command, go to All Products > Air Quality.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Select your sensor, then choose an event on the right to view the individuals detected during that event.**

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><img src="/files/iFyz52vyt6i0nAFuOshU" alt="" width="1151"></div>
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Thumbnails will populate on the right. Click** <i class="fa-ellipsis">:ellipsis:</i> **in the bottom right of the image you want to make a POI.**

a. Select **Add Person of Interest**.\
b. Name the POI.\
c. Click **Create.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**You can now view profiles and their associated air quality events from the People Insights tab in the left navigation.**
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
POI event footage follows the camera’s retention period. For example, if a camera has 30-day retention, POI event clips will no longer be available after that period.
{% endhint %}

***

## Remove a POI profile

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**In Verkada Command, go to All Products > Cameras.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**On the left navigation, click People.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**On the left, under People Lists, select the list the POI profile is in.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Click the photo of the POI you want to manage.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Click next to their name and select Remove this person.**
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
