The IAAF aims to advocate for clean air by providing real-time information on air quality and athlete performance. In addition, it seeks to influence environmental policies, find solutions for air quality and conduct awareness campaigns.
The problem:
The IAAF in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Program aims to address the problem of air pollution that contributes to 7 million deaths a year worldwide. By creating an air quality monitoring network on 1000 athletic tracks around the world, it provides a first-class opportunity to provide evidence to improve the health of citizens and future athletes. It also demonstrates an innovative approach to solving the problem of air pollution.
Our solution:
Supply and installation on demand of Kunak AIR equipment (fixed and mobile) with GPRS for the monitoring of parameters of polluting gases and particles. Measurement parameters: PM 1, PM2.5, PM10, C0, NO2, NO y O3.
Completed actions:
- Deployment of a sensor network with embedded wireless communications.
- Development of mobile application.
- Monthly report of the data obtained.
Results:
Development of a calibrated environmental monitoring solution with the following functionalities:
- System of alarms, alerts and statistics in real time.
- Detection of episodes of increased pollution.
- Management and remote calibration of the equipment.
- Development of advanced statistical protocols to obtain data of high quality and reliability that provide high correlations with official stations and reference equipment.
