Abstract

Air pollution monitoring has become an essential requirement for cities worldwide. Currently, the most extended way to monitor air pollution is via fixed monitoring stations, which are expensive and hard to install. To solve this problem, we have developed EcoSensor, a solution to monitor air pollution through mobile sensors. It is deployed with off-the-shelf hardware such as Waspmote (based on the Arduino platform), low-end sensors, and Raspberry Pi devices.
