case description

This test case is devoted to Citizens which are hosting a specific sensor to collect environmental data. Snap4City has received a list of 5 of them. For each of them we are creating a specific Dashboard (an example is reported in the following). They can also create their own dashboard and processing by following Test Case H9.

The special city users will be capable to perform (i) activities on their specific sensor device, (ii) general activities for monitoring environmental and weather conditions in Jätkäsaari area and Helsinki in the large, such as:

• accessing and monitoring technical information about environmental conditions in real time. Identify eventual critical cases for the city;
• observing real time and prediction data, trends and heatmaps of the environmental and weather conditions, of the area and of the city;

case goal

The aim of this Test Case is to be become aware about specific environmental conditions close to my house and my sensor with respect to those of the area and of the city. They can take a decision on the basis of the context and data value observed for example: deciding the best time to go for a walk with the baby or for jogging, be more aware about the environmental condition and may be put in correlation cause and effects.  So that to get information in real time and historical data about

• My own sensor
  
  • Monitoring real time and time trend of main environmental data of the managed sensor
  • See the status of the sensor as reliability trend
• General information of the area and of the city accessing to:
  
  • real time, predictions and historical values, of weather, environmental, data, air quality indexes, noise; Of your sensors and of other public sensors in Helsinki
  • heatmaps of relevant weather and/or environmental variables and see the animations for the H24 evolution of them (for the current day and past values);
  • Picking the value of an heatmap in a specific GPS point by mouse
  • sensors values and air quality index and heatmaps for Jätkäsaari area
  • observe general POI, services in the city;
• Access to the online documentation of the dashboard;
• Contributing on the Forum Discussion;
• Filling the survey of this case.

scenario

General information

Intended user group	Citizens hosting sensors (sensors which are already registered on platform)
Link to the application	My Sensor Dashboard example (37377.. Helsinki – C2) dashboard which is just an example for your testing. https://www.snap4city.org/dashboardSmartCity/view/index.php?iddasboard=MTc0Mw== Please note that each user of the 5 assigned to us by FHV, and any user that would like to have a personal dashboard similar to it may send a request to us at snap4city@disit.org with the ID of the sensor if it is one already registered. If an user would like to create a personal custom dashboard can do by following the test case (Helsinki H9).

Please note that each user of the 5 assigned to us by FHV, and any user that would like to have a personal dashboard similar to: My Sensor Dashboard example (37377.. Helsinki – C2)

https://www.snap4city.org/dashboardSmartCity/view/index.php?iddasboard=MTc0Mw==

may send a request to us at snap4city@disit.org with the ID of the sensor if it is one already registered. If a user would like to create a personal custom dashboard can do by following the test case (Helsinki H9), or directly the case: HOW TO: create a Dashboard in Snap4City (https://www.snap4city.org/drupal/node/473 )

 

1. My own sensor: Monitoring real time and time trend of main environmental data of the managed sensor
   • • Go on Snap4City portal: https://www.snap4city.org
     • Login with your username and password
     • Click on the above links of the Dashboards or search for the Dashboards of your city:
       https://www.snap4city.org/dashboardSmartCity/view/index.php?iddasboard=MTc0Mw==
     • On the left side of the dashboard the real time data from your sensor are shown. They are related to:
     • 
       
       • RealTimeAQI: real time hourly value (updated to the current hour) of the Air Quality Index and daily trend updated every hour.
       • Real Time PM10: real time last updated value of PM10 pollutant (measured in µg/m3) and daily trend updated every hour 
       • Average Last Hour PM10: real time hourly value (updated to the current hour) of PM10 pollutant (measured in in µg/m3) and daily trend updated every hour.
