This is some Arduino code for GPS tracked senseBoxes. They have an SDS011 particulate matter sensor & HDC1008 Temp & Humidity sensor attached and transmit their measurements to opensensemap.org.
There are multiple variants to make use of various hardware I had available, and to evaluate different use cases and workflows of data transmission.
Each sketch folder has its own readme with (more or less) detailed documentation.
The libraries
folder contains all code that any sketch may depend on.
The the most simple solution to use these sketches is to make a backup of your
existing ~/Arduino
folder, and clone this repository there instead:
mv ~/Arduino ~/Arduino.bak
git clone https://github.com/noerw/mobile-sensebox ~/Arduino
The microcontroller & communication protocol differs for the sketches, but all variants require a GPS device, a microcontroller with I2C, 2 UARTs (or some sort of software UART), as well as an Novafit SDS011 & a Bosch HDC1008.
My builds of all these setups are powered by a 5.6Ah LiPo through an Adafruit
LiPo charger via USB, and enclosed in a 15x8x8 case.
The humidity sensor is included for reference, as the SDS011 only provides valid
data at low humidity. The sensor is enclosed within the case (which heats up
quite a bit), which makes the measurements quite inaccurate, they should only be
treated as approximations.
This setup is quite suboptimal for regular deployment (eg. daily commute by
bike), see Future Work
