This document discusses a pollution map, health map, and green route mobile application that was created. It analyzes air quality index (AQI) data collected over three years from various locations in West Bengal, India. The average AQI was found to be around 200, indicating unhealthy air quality. Particulate matter (SPM and RSPM) were the main pollutants contributing to air pollution. The mobile application aims to provide real-time air quality and weather data, calculate green routes to reduce pollution exposure, and allow users to book green transportation options. The goal is to help make travelers more environmentally conscious and reduce their carbon footprint.

3. It is fairly apparent about the rate at which the quality of air is declining in the current
environment extensively in the urban areas .One such city, where the poor quality of
air can clearly be identified is the capital city of India, Delhi. The Air Quality Index
(AQI) is a powerful tool on the basis of which the characteristics of air can be
determined in a certain area. The AQI for the city of Delhi is computed by monitoring
the four main pollutants namely nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2),
suspended particulate matter (SPM),and residual suspended particulate matter (RSPM)
by calculating the air quality indices for these pollutants. With every country following
a different scale for evaluation, the values provided by the Central Pollution Control
Board of India are used to assess the condition of air of the region under
Consideration . The Seasonal and Daily calculation of AQI divulged the quality of air in
The study region which could further be classified into various sections stretching
across good, satisfactory, moderately polluted, poor, very poor and severe based on
the AQI that was estimated. The main purpose of this research is to identify the
weaknesses in the current quality of air and suggest possible steps or policies
rendering it fit for human consumption.

4.  Apart from land and water, air is the prime resource for the sustenance of life.
Air is an integral and essential necessity in everyday life. Whether it is
agriculture, or pollination of various crops, or even basic survival of numerous
living species, everything everywhere is dependent on air. The importance of air
cannot be overemphasized and hence the rising level of air pollution is a matter
of serious concern. Air Pollution is the inadequate change in physical, chemical
or biological characteristics of air which hampers life as well as leads to
potential health problems . Air pollution majorly affects the eyes, lungs, nose,
and throat by causing irritation. It also creates respiratory problems and
exacerbates existing conditions such as asthma and emphysema. The risk of
cardiovascular diseases become much higher when humans are continually
exposed to air pollution. In India, air pollution is the third highest cause of
death among health risks and because of this, life expectancy has gone down by
2.6 years. Hence, it has become increasingly necessary to not only control the
contamination but also enlighten the people affecting the quality of air
effectively in a bid to maintain a healthy standard. A reasonable way to analyze
the amount of pollution is by determining the standard of air. With technological
advancements, a vast amount of data on ambient air quality is generated which
is used to establish the quality of air in different areas.

5. Health costs of air pollution
 The most important reason for concern over the worsening air pollution in the country
is its effect on the health of individuals. Exposure to particulate matter for a long time
can lead to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases such as asthma, bronchitis, COPD,
lung cancer and heart attack. The Global Burden of Disease Study for 2010, published
in 2013, had found that outdoor air pollution was the fifth-largest killer in India and
around 620,000 early deaths occurred from air pollution-related diseases in 2010.
According to a WHO study, 13 of the 20 most-polluted cities in the world are in India;
however, the accuracy and methodology of the WHO study was questioned by the
Government of India. India also has one of the highest number of COPD patients and
the highest number of deaths due to COPD.
 Over a million Indians die prematurely every year due to air pollution, according to the
non-profit Health Effects Institute. Over two million children—half the children in
Delhi—have abnormalities in their lung function, according to the Delhi Heart and
Lung Institute. Over the past decade air pollution has increased in India significantly.
Asthma is the most common health problem faced by Indians and it accounts for more
than half of the health issues caused by air pollution.

6.  The study estimated that of 480.7 million Disability-Adjusted Life Years in India
4.4% of could be ascribed to ambient particulate matter pollution and 15.8 million
of them were the result of polluted air in households. In terms of average life
expectancy it is suggested that average life expectancy in India would increase by
1.7 years if exposure was limited to national minimum recommendations.
 Ambient air pollution in India is estimated to cause 670,000 deaths annually and
particularly aggravates respiratory and cardiovascular conditions including chronic
bronchitis, lung cancer and asthma. Ambient air pollution is linked to an increase in
hospital visits, with a higher concentration of outdoor pollution particulates resulting
in emergency room visit increases of between 20 and 25% for a range
of conditions associated with
higher exposure to air pollution.
Approximately 76% of households
in rural India are reliant on solid
biomass for cooking purposes
which contributes further to the
disease burden of ambient air
pollution experienced by the
population of India

7. According to the WHO, India has 14 out of the 15 most polluted cities in the world in
terms of PM 2.5 concentrations. Other Indian cities that registered very high levels of
PM2.5 pollutants are Delhi, Patna, Agra,Muzaffarpur,Srinagar,Gurgaon,Jaipur,Patiala and
Jodhpur, followed by Ali Subah Al-Salem in Kuwait and a few cities in China and Mongolia.
Air Quality Index (AQI) is a number used to communicate the level of pollution in the air
and it essentially tells you the level of pollution in the air in a given city on a given day.
In May 2014 the World Health Organization announced New Delhi as the most polluted
city in the world. In November 2016, the Great smog of Delhi was an environmental event
which saw New Delhi and adjoining areas in a dense blanket of smog, which was the
worst in 17 years.

• Data are point estimate (95% UI). DALYs=disability-adjusted life-years.
• The sums of deaths and DALYs attributable to each component of air pollution are
more than the estimates for overall air pollution because the population attributable
fractions from component risk factors can add up to more than the population
attributable fraction for the parent risk factor, even if the components are independent.

Striving for a sustainable lifestyle. For green travelers the vacations or holidays
are planned in a way that minimizes their carbon footprint.
Tourism has the potential to immensely benefit the natural ecosystems if all
members of the industry and responsible green travelers are constantly
engaged in environmental protection and conservation.

20. AQI Forecasting
Travel green Mobile App
When it comes to Air Quality
forecasting, the key to a
better accuracy is refine the
forecasting model, and create
a specific modelisation for
each country, and, even
better, for each city.
Travel green app will help
to book green transportation from
your mobile.

21.  In this research, the day-to-day AQI values were calculated for
three years straight. In addition to this, the correlation
coefficient of each pollutant was computed. This gave a valuable
insight into the quality of air and the challenges that we are
facing in a bid to improve the air quality. The AQI value on an
average was found consistently around 200 which is rendered
unhealthy by the CPCB, see table II. With the main contributing
factors in contamination of air being SPM and RSPM, there is an
urgent need to address their rising concentration. Some
plausible reasons for their increase might be industrial activities,
agricultural malpractices and so on. Although SO2 and NO2 look
seemingly under control, there has been a steady rise in their
concentration levels that need further monitoring. As cited
earlier, air pollution is one of the deadly contributors hampering
human life causing numerous life threatening diseases.
Moreover, the dire state of the capital city portrays a poor
reflection of the country as a whole in the global sector. Hence, it
has become quintessential to address this issue with a top
priority to enhance the standard of living.
