The workshop. What is it?<\/h3>\n

Lewesian\u2019s (and non-Lewesian\u2019s) participating in the Particulate workshop will be introduced to techniques and technologies learning how to use sensors, and other new media tech to identify, collect measure, and present data and information regarding the town\u2019s air quality.<\/p>\n

An example of collaborative citizen-science, the workshop will begin and end at the STEM day Town Hall. Using bicycle pedal power, during the middle of the day the sensing devices will be put to the test to measure air pollution levels in, around, and across the town.<\/p>\n

The event is free (sign up at Eventbrite (link) although please note, participants need to provide their own bicycles.<\/p>\n

Children under the age of 14 need to be accompanied by an adult. (See – participant notes below)<\/b><\/p>\n

Participants will be introduced to:<\/p>\n

Sensing devices, including sensor construction, reading and interpretation, the transmission of sensor data, and its graphic visualisation for the web.<\/p>\n

Open Street Maps as a source for creating a live air quality map and applying the sensor gathered data.<\/p>\n

First steps in the construction of a website using the air quality data and information amassed during earlier stages in the workshop.<\/p>\n

The aim is for this project to continue to be developed after the workshop.<\/p>\n
