Smart cities: System for monitoring microclimate conditions based on crowdsensing

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of technologies, application domains and services for smart city development. We developed, implemented and evaluated a system for monitoring microclimate conditions based on crowdsensing. The developed system aims to demonstrate one of the ways of integration of Internet of Things, web and big data technologies. This system measures microclimate conditions in smart city such as: temperature, humidity, and air pressure. In this way citizens can receive quick information about microclimate conditions in their environment, such as smart buildings and homes, and to share information via web application and social media services. As a system support, web application that provides services of microclimate conditions is developed.
