Air Quality Radar

Client: Matthew Smith, Microsoft <Matthew.Smith@microsoft.com>

Rain radar apps are familiar and popular - allowing people to plan their activities by approaching rain. This project will create the first “air radar” that uses monitoring of multiple air quality parameters to predict movement of pollution. We can provide access to recordings of data streams from around Cambridge, and also the Microsoft Cortana Intelligence Suite. You should use machine learning techniques to predict what happens next. This will involve integrating data with time of day, traffic movements, temperature, wind speed and other factors. Your current situation maps and future trend predictions will be useful not only to cyclists and residents, but to planners concerned with future environmental health.
