A Mobile Small Sized Device for Air Pollutants Monitoring Connected to the Smart Road: Preliminary Results.

The work in progress on a small sized air pollution monitoring system mountable on board urban vehicles is described. The system exchanges data exploiting a "Smart Road" infrastructure with a central computing facility, the Smart City Platform, a GIS-based Decision Support System designed to perform real time monitoring and interpolation of data with the aim of possibly issuing alarms with respect to different town areas. Early experimental data gathering in the Rome urban area and subsequent spline interpolation processing are presented. Thus, air pollutants distribution maps have been produced. Finally, protocols for data exchange have been designed. Work is in progress on algorithms for data fusion among different monitoring systems and interpolation of data for a geographically denser map.
