4. TZOA

By using TZOA you will be helping to create a crowdsourced map of environmental data in real-time. This will allow you to make lifestyle decisions such as where to find the freshest air to go for a run, where to plan a picnic, or even allow you to find the hotspots of air pollution in your neighborhood so that you can help fix them and live a healthier life. Our air quality sensor counts individual particles, displays concentrations, and distinguishes between PM10, which tends to be allergens, and PM2.5, which is more harmful to human health. TZOA’s data will stream onto the TZOA smartphone app which will then be sent to the cloud in order to create large-scale maps for everyone to view.
