GeoRiskAccess: GIS-Based Urban Environmental Risk Analysis

About The Project

GeoRiskAccess is a comprehensive project that leverages Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to analyze pollution and risk factors in urban environments, with a focus on Pune, India, particularly the Katraj area.

Project Overview

GeoRiskAccess integrates real-time sensor data from various environmental monitoring devices to provide insights into urban environmental conditions and associated risks. The project aims to create a web-based platform for informed decision-making in urban planning, disaster management, and public health interventions.

Key Features

• Real-time data collection from multiple sensor types
• GIS-based analysis of environmental and urban factors
• Web-based platform for data visualization and risk assessment
• Focus on Pune, India, with emphasis on the Katraj area

Data Sources and Sensors

The project incorporates data from various sources and sensors, including:

• DHT Sensor: Measure temperature and humidity
• RTC Module: Record real-time data with a timestamp
• MQ135 Sensors: Monitor gases like CO, NO2, and SO2
• Sharp Optical Dust Sensor (GP2Y1014AU0F): Detect fine particulate matter (PM2.5)
• Sentinel-5P (S5P):
  • NO2: 7 km x 3.5 km resolution, Daily
  • SO2: 7x3.5 km² (along-track x across-track) at nadir, Daily
  • CO: 7 km x 3.5 km resolution, Daily
• MODIS:
  • NDVI: 250 meters resolution, 8-days interval
  • AOD (Aerosol Optical Depth): 1 km resolution, 8 days interval
• CAAQMS: PM2.5 point data, Hourly

Analyzed Factors

GeoRiskAccess analyzes several factors to assess environmental conditions and risks:

• Population density
• Locations of fire stations, police stations, and parks
• Air quality (PM2.5 and other pollutants)
• Traffic density
• Land use patterns
• Weather conditions
• Topography
• Nighttime Lights (NTL) for economic activity
• Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) for vegetation cover
