Service: PlanetWatch: monitoring air quality

Responsible organisation: PlanetWatch (Private sector)

PlanetWatch SaS is a startup born in January 2020 that deals with environmental monitoring, starting with air quality. It aims to “monitor” the pollution levels of the planet through the creation of a global monitoring network with decentralized governance . PlanetWatch brings together IoT devices, big data, AI for data analysis and blockchain: the data generated by four types of environmental sensors, indoor and outdoor, is written, validated and tracked on the Algorand blockchain, composing the first public ledger and distributed on air quality. This data is then analyzed by a software suite that uses Artificial Intelligence algorithms and finally shared, in compliance with the GDPR, on web and mobile interfaces such as customized dashboards, interactive maps, transasction logs and apps that build a Sentiment Analysis in real time based on the surveys of users on the move.
