Clean Air Anywhere

Note that for this to run properly you need to allow the website to use your location

Project for packhacks 2019 to display pollution level in an area in an easy to interpret way

Health data sourced from: wikipedia

App/Website

The website (mobile friendly!) pulls from an online API to collect pollution data and then parses it into easy to understand terms. There is a "chat" component as well which allows for users to communicate with each other in a local context. The goal of the website, as a whole, is to be easy to use for anybody, enabling people to truly understand and be more connected with the things that affect them.

Physical component

We also developed schematics for a physical device which can be used to locally measure air quality and communicate using a bluetooth chip with a user's phone or computer. The intended purpose of the ground station is to allow for more precise data collection for people, as there is quite a difference between air pollution at one's home and in a more regional level. Ideally, with the support of Google Maps's API we would be able to display data in a more specific way. schematic
