What is Mobile Air Pollution Monitoring Network about?

Current methods of estimating air quality involve assigning a single value called the Air Quality Index (AQI) to a large land area for a 24-hour period based on a very few, sparselylocated sensors. This produces a low-resolution image of the air quality in that region. We have devised a new mobile air quality monitoring network with the ability to provide highresolution realtime pollution data at any location within the coverage area. We have prototyped sensors and proven the feasibility of the approach, and are currently testing a smallscale implementation using irregularly-sampled spatiotemporal measurements from mobile car-mounted sensors coupled with existing static data. This data feeds a web-based application, enabling users to view air quality in specific regions as well as estimate exposure over specified time periods and plan routes based on minimal exposure to a given pollutant.
