Abstract

In recent years, people are getting more and more concerned with air quality and other environmental nuisance. Whether it’s indoors or outdoors, humans are getting more sensitive to the issue. Implementing a more accessible commercial low cost environmental surveillance systems have proven to be a rapidly growing solution. Therefore, we are specially focused on environmental quality measurements, integrating environmental and gas sensors in wireless communicating systems in order to provide a wide-range monitoring solutions suitable for several environmental case study. We have also created different indicators which convey the wellbeing state in encountered situations where user can rely on these indicators to assess their environment quality. In this work we present a framework for monitoring real time particulate matter evolution in a construction site and the implementation of different acoustic noise measurement systems for mapping the noise evolution in a chosen city. Achieved results show the effectiveness of such systems in nuisance detection and qualifying living environments.
