This work presents an interdisciplinary assessment examining air quality tracking in urban environments. This application is well suited to be approached with wireless sensor networks' paradigm in their overall variations. The proposed modeling application takes advantage of Vehicle Sensor Networks (VSN) by embedding sensor nodes in public transportation, addressing this study case with bus lines so that the mobiles spread the sampling activity through many different places visited during the route. Simultaneously, it alleviates power management restrictions, packaging dimensions (size and weight), and general maintenance issues. We perform environmental modeling based on real data considering temporal and spatial multivariate behavior on observed phenomena. We consider the city of São Paulo in our case study and parse the asserted data to create a multivariate map of samples, showing the behavior of five different air pollutants from fossil-fueled vehicles (CO, O3, PM10, NO2 and SO2) simultaneously while it also varies in time. Furthermore, the experiment considers a detailed description of roads, bus lines, vehicle itineraries, and general traffic information. The input data that has unformatted or missing information due to being sourced from real sensors is handled to create the map mentioned above. Our methodology addresses the following: 1) the mentioned environmental simulation, 2) the deployment of mobile sensor nodes and performing sensing process, 3) the implementation of network activity and delivery of collected data, 4) visualization of monitored environment based on gathered data using Voronoi Diagrams to fill blank data at non-reached areas. Finally, our VSN-based approach improved 126 times lower error and 11 times higher coverage compared to conventional monitoring with air quality stations.

Background: The potentially harmful effects of air pollution on the human health have been already presented in epidemiological studies, suggesting a strong association with increased morbidity and mortality. The aim of the study was to evaluate a possible relationship between coronary artery lesion progression related to habitation place (cities vs. villages) and air pollution. Methods: There were 148 (101 men and 47 women) patients with a median age of 70 (63–74) years enrolled into retrospective analysis based on the coronary angiography results and their habitation place. Patients with stable coronary syndrome, who underwent repeated percutaneous coronary interventions were enrolled into the analysis based on demographical and clinical characteristics combined with annual exposure to air pollution (PM2.5, PM10, and NO2). Results: The results of multivariable regression analysis showed a significant relationship between coronary artery lesion progression requiring percutaneous intervention and NO2 chronic exposure in patients living in cities of Poland (OR 2.00, 95% CI: 0.41–9.62, p < 0.001). The predictive value of air pollution exposure at habitation place for coronary artery lesion disease progression requiring percutaneous intervention was evaluated by receiver-operator curve analysis, which revealed an area under the curve of 0.939, yielding a sensitivity of 87.1% and specificity of 90.7%. Conclusions: Coronary artery lesion disease progression can be related to chronic exposure to NO2 air pollution in patients living in cities in Poland.

Nowadays, society has realized the dangers of air pollution and is actively implementing air quality monitoring systems. These systems are based either on the deployment of a small number of fixed monitoring stations using high-level sensors, or on many lower-quality sensors integrated into the city infrastructure. However, there is a lack of tools that would allow developing recommendations and techniques for selecting the type of air sensors. In this work this gap is partially filled.
