The Challenge | From Curious Minds Come Helping Hands

Your challenge is to design and build an innovative platform to integrate satellite data and information about vulnerable populations and environmental hazards in order to identify the most at-risk populations. Be creative and think outside the box. How will you identify those people that are often missed, but need aid the most?

Healthy Air

Prevents asthmatic people from exposure to an atmosphere with a high content of pollution.

Healthy Air

Hello! We are the “Healthy Air” team.

We are from Córdoba, Argentina.

Our main purpose is to develope an application that prevents asthmatic people from exposure to an atmosphere with a high content of gases like ozone and small particles that might hurt them.

We want to help people to discern which is an optimal environment for them and which one is not.According to the Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Journal, asthma is the most prevalent chronic respiratory disease worldwide. It affected 358 millions of people in 2015.By being able to measure different environmental parameters such as humidity, wind, in addition to gases, we can have additional information to promote a better quality of life. Among those parameters you can also include the weather, pollution levels, etc.Finally, with this application we want to collaborate with what has been called digital epidemiology.
