Abstract

Monitoring air quality for daily life gets more and more attention. In modern urban environments with high skylines and unexpected pollution events, it is important to have micro–scale monitoring in addition to traditional monitoring methods. We propose a micro-scale modeling system as well as a micro–scale air quality monitoring system, which comprises as a micro–scale air quality management system, named AirScope. The AirScope consists of CFD–based air quality modeling, USN–based sensor monitoring, and multi-modal interaction platform. In this paper, we present a brief overview of AirScope and several aspects of constructed initial indoor test environment with a few validity tests. The proposed system will be extended to an outdoor real-world test bed with most of modern urban elements.
