What is the ExpoLIS project?

ExpoLIS developed an air quality exposure sensing system, composed by a network of sensor nodes, to be deployed on public transportation (buses) in order to obtain the real-time air pollution distribution in urban areas.

The implementation of ExpoLIS was conducted in Lisbon to demonstrate its applicability to assess the exposure to air pollutants in different commuting modes to support planning policies, environment scientists and transport companies by generating massive air pollution data sets and to provide a health-optimal routing service to the population.

This project is a joint initiative of IST and ISCTE-IUL with the collaboration of CARRIS.

This work is financed by national funds throught FCT - Foundation for Science and Technology, I.P., within the framework of the project ExpoLIS (LISBOA-01-0145-FEDER-032088).
