Fine Dust Measurement FDM
Knowledge about the status of the air quality, lead to knowledge about uncomfortable or dangerous situations regarding the concentration of smoke, oxygen, loudness or other influences. To watch limits and react if neccesary is a contribution for a sustainable development of lifestyle.
Whats the project about
The topic “Fine Dust Measurement” is directed to two different groups of students:
The first group comes from fields like computer sciences, informatics, electrical engineering and so on. Here, we will do a further development of the devices. Experience in programming (python, html, javascript, application of raspberry Pi) would be very helpful. Also experience with Artificial Neural Networks ANN and the Software TensorFlow would be perfect.
The second group comes from fields like environmental science, social science and so on. Here, we would like to measure the air quality, especially the concentration of fine dust and aerosols in- and outdoors. We will create a Fine Dust Concentration Map (FDCM) of Sligo and will investigate the difference of measurement results depending from the high level at the same location.
More about the project and goals
This project will be split into two parts – fields:
For the first group: Experience in programming (python, html, javascript, application of raspberry Pi) would be very helpful. Also experience with Artificial Neural Networks ANN and the Software TensorFlow would be perfect.
For the second group: Fundamentals in environmental and/or social science would be perfect, but also knowledge and experience for the creation of a demonstration video to show the connection between the exhaust of fine dust from sources and the increase of the measurement values
Study Areas
In this project, we would like to serve two fields:
for the first group: Experience in programming (python, html, javascript, application of raspberry Pi) would be very helpful. Also experience with Artificial Neural Networks ANN and the Software TensorFlow would be perfect.
For the second group: Fundamentals in environmental and/or social science would be perfect, but also knowledge and experience for the creation of a demonstration video to show the connection between the exhaust of fine dust from sources and the increase of the measurement values.
Also students, who can create movies, so that the viewer can see the connection between the source of fine dust (e.g. car or ship) and the increase of the measurement result in a graph. Theay could create a demonstration video are welcome.
