From Fing's "Villes 2.0" (Cities 2.0) programme

Multiply the number of urban environmental sensors by 1,000

Promote people's participation in building sustainable cities

Encourage other sensor networks to share their data

Facilitate the emergence of new knowledge, new services, more informed decisions, new discussions…

The initial experimentation The watch measures Ozone (O3), Noise every few seconds. It carries a GPS and a Bluetooth chip. The phone displays the information in a graphic way (the "Eye"). It transmits the data to the CityPulse platform. The platform displays the data in several ways. It also makes the raw data available.

From individual measurement… 3 individual watches An itinerary
