So, I have a CO2 sensor that usually runs for hours or days. I think this sensor was developed for indoor climate measurements in production or office environments.

It has a built-in calibration mechanism where I need to provide current CO2 concentration in fresh air. Factory value was 400 ppm. I do this once a year.

How do other, more precise/scientific CO2 sensors handle this problem? Run a script that gets the latest value from Mauna Loa Observatory, and use that to calibrate the sensor?
