Project description

This PhD research focuses on the development and application of an integrated methodology for air quality monitoring at a high temporal and spatial resolution. The monitoring will be performed with both high quality mobile instruments and low-cost devices, and be complemented with machine learning techniques to deal with the low-cost sensors and spatial interpolation techniques.
