What are other decentralized open science collection projects like this that we can participate in?
Edit: Site finally loaded (HN HoD), is this actually a decentralized monitoring program? From reading, it kinda sounds like it's just for your own monitoring rather than aggregating the data to give a broader picture across the globe.
- MattRix 5y agoThere are already many sources of outdoor air quality data, you can find maps like this, for example: https://aqicn.org/map/world/ https://aqicn.org/map/world/ Monitoring household/office/school indoor air quality seems to be a relatively new trend, but the impact of indoor air quality is actually quite strong so it makes sense.
- bumby 5y agoIt’s not a terribly new idea. Demand-controlled ventilation has been around for decades (where ventilation is governed by air sampling, usually CO2). The reasoning seems to be a recent trend is that it’s more economical to implement

- ahaucnx 5y agoOur main product is a platform for indoor air quality monitoring targeting schools [1] and offices. We have a professional sensor but also the open source/open hardware version that can be connected to our platform. Alternatively you can send the data to any other platform or use it as an offline monitor. There are many citizen science projects that have open API's that you could send data to.
