This presentation will cover the basics of the use of satellite remote sensing for air quality applications, including advantages and limitations of satellite data with respect to other data sources, and discuss some opportunities for satellite data to be used together with and as a supplement for in-situ measurements with IoT-based Air Sensors.
In recent years, there is an increasing attention on air quality derived services for the final users. A dense grid of measures is needed to implement services such as conditional routing, mobility services, sustainability, alerting and data heatmaps for Dashboards in control room. Therefore, the challenge consists of providing high density data and services starting from scattered sensors...
There is a severe lack of air pollution data around the world. Low cost sensors (LCS) for measuring air pollution offer a possible path forward to remedy the lack of data, though they require careful calibration as the manufacturer-reported data often show large biases against reference monitors. Traditionally, calibration has occurred by co-locating LCS with local reference monitors and...
A brief overview of Clarity Movement's Sensing-as-a-Service air monitoring and IoT-based sensing and exploration of how the convergence of cost-effective distributed air monitoring technologies and multi-stakeholder collaborative strategies has paved the way for significant advancements in regional air quality management — including example case studies from around the world. Learn how Air...
Good air quality is critical to our health and well-being. Lack of air quality monitors, diverse pollution sources and unique weather patterns make air quality monitoring a difficult throughout Africa. Afri-SET, a new air quality sensors evaluation and training facility at the Department of Physics, University of Ghana is addressing these issues. The facility is evaluating low-cost sensors...
