Smart Real Time System For Air Pollution Monitoring

High concentrations of particulate matter (PM) in the atmosphere have been associated with the degradation of human health. Citizens have increasingly demanded for more participatory, timely, and diffused air quality monitoring actions. In this work, we present a low cost IoT based Real-Time Air Pollution Monitoring System of ${\$}$50 only to analyse the air quality in Mauritius. The proposed real-time stations consist of an IoT module that monitors and signalizes the air quality. A website and mobile application is also provided to allow an end-user access all the recorded data. Two stations were implemented in 3 different localities in Mauritius and they were evaluated under different scenarios. The study shows the results of air monitoring at the different locations as well as the air quality regarding the natural indoor conditions. Finally, this paper shows how much has been achieved and how the system can be improved.
