Presentation outline
– CITI-SENSE is a collaborative project– Call: FP7-ENV-2012.6.5.1– Starting date: 1 October 2012– Duration: 48 months– Partners organizations: 28, 12 countries– Grant agreement nº: 308524– Web portal: http://www.citi-sense.eu– Citizens’ observatory central web portal:
http://co.citi-sense.eu
Basic data
Objective
Develop Citizens’ Observatories and empower citizens to– Participate in environmental monitoring– Influence community policy & decision making– Contribute to Global Earth Observation System of
Systems (GEOSS)
R&D questions
How to best improve urban life quality with citizens’ involvement? How to recruit citizens to participate in environmental governance?
How can sensor data complement other data sources?
How can sensors lead to a greater involvement of citizens?
How can citizens’ data be used in science?
How will raised citizens’ awareness of pollution affect behavior?
Citizens’ observatories initiatives
Three empowerment initiatives– Outdoor AQ – Indoor AQ in schools– Personal comfort in public spaces
More than 20 citizens’ observatories across nine cities
– Eight for outdoor AQ – Up to 10 for indoor AQ in
schools– Four for personal comfort in
public spaces
Innovative technologies
High technology environmental sensors, innovative data fusion and communication paired with scientific analysis and efficient communications with users and the public
Data Fusion
Innovative technologies
Deploy static (fixed) and mobile (personal) sensors to monitor various environmental components.
UV
NO2 +O3

– Access to various citizens’
observatories
o Outdoor AQ
o Indoor AQ in schools
o Personal comfort in public spaces
o Citizens’ objective voices
– Access all project sensor data in one
interface
– Open API enables GEOSS functional
integration into citizens’ observatories
central web portal
R&D challenges
Alignment across a variety of R&D disciplines
– Natural science, social science, sensor technology, ICT
Efficient dialogue with citizens
Efficient citizens participation and empowerment
Bridging information demand and supply
Integration across data types and cities
New knowledge on how urban pollution affects citizens
Technological development
– Sensors modified for CITI-SENSE
o Performance of most sensors is unknown
o Long-term reliability is unknown
– Citizens’ mobile apps
– Real-time information
– Cutting edge visualization
– Innovative monitoring approach
– GEOSS integration
Our goal is to meet challenges
Opportunity for solutions
Challenges in data quality, interpretation and communication
Responsible use of air pollution sensor data
Evaluation of low-cost sensor for critical pollutants: validation and calibration, assessing uncertainty
Big Data: expand the amount of data/information
Development of IT infrastructure and new data streams
Integrating the data/information with other relevant data/information: data assimilation
Guidance and advice on sensor/sensor platform use and data interpretation
Visualizations will be helpful for making sense of data
Opportunities
Supplementing routine ambient air monitoring networks
Monitoring personal exposureAir quality sensors can be coupled with physiological sensors (heart speed, blood pressure, respiratory rate, etc.)
Small, lower-cost sensors bring new challenges but along with these challenges come great opportunities to improve air quality management and public health.
3S principle: Increasing• Sensitivity• Selectivity• Stability
Monitoring at the source
Stimulate participation and encourage the dialogue– Gamification– Augmented reality
Opportunities
Cluster cooperation with four other projects – Citclops– COBWEB– Omniscientis– WeSenseIt
All five projects focus on different environmental topics, but
share common goals
Have common challenges

Side Event on Wednesday CITIZENS OBSERVATORIES, Wednesday January 15th, 1200-1400, Room 15 – Level 1
The Citizens Observatories side event will have presentations by representatives from five ongoing European FP7 projects in the area of Citizens Observatories, http://www.citizen-obs.eu/
The session will be introduced by EU research programme officer, Jose Miguel Rubio Iglesisas, from DG Research & Innovation I4, Climate Action and Earth Observation, Earth Observation Sector. The session will be chaired by Max Craglia, senior scientist at the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) in the Digital Earth and Reference Data Unit.
