# Raspberry Pi Air Quality Monitor
|
||
|
|
A simple air quality monitoring service for the Raspberry Pi.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
Clone the repository and run the following:
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
make install
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Running
|
||
|
|
To run, use the run command:
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
make run
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Architecture
|
||
|
|
This project uses python, flask, docker-compose and redis to create a simple web server to display the latest historical values from the sensor.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Example Data
|
||
|
|
Some example data you can get from the sensor includes the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```json
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
"device_id": 13358,
|
||
|
|
"pm10": 10.8,
|
||
|
|
"pm2.5": 4.8,
|
||
|
|
"timestamp": "2021-06-16 22:12:13.887717"
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The sensor reads two particulate matter (PM) values.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PM10 is a measure of particles less than 10 micrometers, whereas PM 2.5 is a measurement of finer particles, less than 2.5 micrometers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Different particles are from different sources, and can be hazardous to different parts of the respiratory system.
