Mobile Air Quality Monitoring

这个项目将产生一个系统，能够监测地面或低海拔地区的各种气体和颗粒物。设计将考虑各种数据捕获方法（如无人机，自行车，车身安装等）。测量的空气质量数据将被记录并使用数据可视化工具呈现。还将研究使用互联网服务从系统访问数据的方法。作为本科生最后一年项目的一部分，已经创建了一个原型，但是进一步开发这个项目将是非常有趣的。拉夫堡大学（Loughborough University）已经在校园内进行了用自行车和无人机运输该设备的实验。该项目的路线图旨在重新设计设备，将传感器集成到定制电路板上，以减少物理尺寸，重量和未来的生产成本。此外，由于该设备可以从各种气体和颗粒测量中收集大量数据集，因此将实施一个合适的“大数据”解决方案来可视化数据。该项目将由拉夫堡大学可持续发展团队提供实物支持

This project will produce a system that will be able to monitor various gases and particulate matter at ground level or low-level altitudes. Designs will be considered for various data capture methods (e. g. UAV, bicycle, body mounted, etc). Measured air quality data will be logged and presented using data visualisation tools. Methods for accessing the data from the system using internet services will also be investigated.A prototype has been created as part of an undergraduate final year project, however it would be of great interest to develop this project further. Experiments have already taken place across the Loughborough University campus by transporting the device using bicycles and UAVs. The roadmap for this project looks to re-engineer the device to integrate the sensors onto a custom circuit board to decrease the physical size, weight and future production costs. Also, as the device can collect large datasets from a variety of gas and particulate measurements, a suitable "Big Data" solution for visualising the data will be implemented.This project will be supported by the Sustainability team at Loughborough University, providing in-kind support
