Abstract
Our article presents a simple technical solution for a practical low-consumption air quality surveillance system, operational on large areas, in real-time. It is a combined software plus hardware dedicated system, used for measuring, sending and computing field data. The hardware component uses a single chip microcontroller, receiving data from a group of specific air pollution monitoring sensors (PM2.5, PM10, SO2, VOC, NO2, O3, CO, CO2), a simple LoRaWAN communication interface with a monitoring platform. This straightforward technical solution was tested and validated under real-world operational settings. In the event that the limitations of the measured environment parameters are exceeded, alarms may be given in order to implement active pollution-reduction measures. Data is matched to existing public air quality monitoring stations.
