Title: The Smart and Trustworthy AIR quality (STAIR) network, a low-cost air quality sensor network for Orlando, FL
Abstract: The Smart and Trustworthy AIR quality network (STAIR) is a 63-nodes low-cost air quality sensor network designed to measure ambient concentrations of particulate matter (PM) across the Orlando, FL area. Some of primary purposes of this highly interdisciplinary project are to design a cyber-secured sensor network that can provide reliable and trustworthy data, and to utilize this network as a tool to facilitate the communications between citizens and the government and to enhance trust in governance. Here, we will briefly introduce our network, and discuss some of the valuable lessons we learned in designing and deploying the STAIR network.
