    Victor nguyen
    This document describes an air quality monitoring solution called Smart Sense. It monitors various air pollutants using small, affordable monitoring stations that provide real-time data through an IoT platform and mobile/web applications. The system aims to supplement existing fixed monitoring stations by providing wider coverage at a lower cost. It has been validated against professional station data. Potential uses include giving cities and agencies better air quality data for modeling, traffic management, promotion of tourist areas, noise monitoring, and informing citizens during emergencies.

    Smart Sense

    Air Quality Monitoring


    Solution

    Monitor What You Breathe!


    AIR POLLUTION
    ➢ An environmental and social problem

    ➢ Affects human health

    ➢ Causes aggravated asthma, increases allergic reaction symptoms, lung cancer, heart
    diseases

    ➢ Economic impact

    ➢ Increases medical costs – 4 billion EUR/year in Europe

    ➢ Increases number of days lost at work – 16 billion EUR/year in Europe

    ➢ Causes premature deaths

    ✓ WHO estimates that 6,5 million people die prematurely each year from causes
    directly linked to air pollution
    CURRENT STATUS

    ➢ Professional fixed monitoring stations


    ✓ Very expensive equipment, high servicing costs
    ✓ Low spatial coverage
    ✓ Used by specialized governmental institutions
    INDICATIVE MEASUREMENTS - EU DIRECTIVE
    ➢ EU directive 2008/50/EC
    ✓ Proposes indicative measurements as supplement to the fixed ones
    ✓ Combining those measurements and modelling techniques → possibility to asses air quality over
    wider geographic area with more detailed overview than just using one or few fixed measuring
    stations
    INDICATIVE MONITORING STATIONS
    1. Took the functionalities from
    professional monitoring
    stations

    5. Smart Sense AirQ Monitoring


    Station
    2. Add connectivity

    4. Lower the
    price

    3. Make it much
    smaller
    MONITORING SYSTEM
    ➢ Solution consists of:
    ✓ Smart Sense AirQ monitoring station:
    ✓ Modular design with swappable sensing modules (NO2, NOX, CO,
    SO2, O3, airborne particles PM1, PM2.5, PM10)

    ✓ Microclimate sensors: temperature, humidity, air pressure

    ✓ Other supporting sensing elements: NH3, H2S, SO2, wind speed and
    direction, precipitation, noise

    ✓ Smart Sense AirQ cloud (or any other IoT platform)

    ✓ Smart Sense AirQ web and mobile application

    ➢ Simple plug & play installation


    ➢ Real - time data
    SYSTEM FOR MONITORING OUTDOOR AIR QUALITY
    WEB APPLICATION

    ➢ Location of station on Google Maps


    ➢ Graphical and numerical view of
    measured values for each gas and
    particulate for a certain period
    ➢ Current air quality index value (AQI) and
    colour of the current situation
    indicating general air quality
    ➢ Data history
    MOBILE APPLICATION

    ➢ iOS and Android application


    ➢ Real – time data
    OUR RESULTS

    ➢ Collaboration with Andrija


    Stampar Teaching Institute of
    Public Health in Croatia in
    validating Smart Sense AirQ
    Monitoring Station data with
    professional environmental
    station data
    ➢ Result → Data validated by
    Teaching Institute of Public
    Comparison: May 2017 Health in Croatia!
    USE CASE – BIG DATA
    ➢ Data management by ecological and health agencies

    ➢ Data collected through monitoring stations can be used for modelling techniques,
    estimates and predictions of air quality in the cities

    ➢ Better air quality overview in the cities→ action plans

    ➢ Accurate information about certain pollutants on certain locations

    ➢ Avoiding general announcements about air quality in the City in the case of natural disasters

    ➢ „Real – time” traffic management


    USE CASE - PROMOTION
    ➢ Promotion of the city as a tourist destination with high air quality

    ➢ Show air quality data on the ferry docks, beaches, city center, promenades, ...

    ➢ Let's show our guests that they can enjoy the fresh air all over the city!
    USE CASE – NOISE DETECTION
    ➢ Air pollution is also measured by the present noise level

    ➢ Monitor the noise level in the city – regulation of coffee shop and
    restaurant working hours in populated area according to the noise level

    ➢ Send the noise level information on the mobile phones (in real - time) to the
    responsible institutions / communal officers
    USE CASE – EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
    ➢ Be smart and social responsible city!

    ➢ Inform citizens precisely about air quality depending on their location – particularly
    important in case of natural disasters (e.g. fire) and emergency situations
