HAPADS presentation at PG OPEN

21st of March 2024, Gdańsk University of Technology, ETI Faculty

During PG OPEN, employees of the Gdańsk University of Technology have answered questions about the educational offer, recruitment process, scholarships, dormitories, etc. The main information point was located in the Main Building [no. 1 on the campus map] in the hall in front of the PG Library. Consultation points of individual departments also operates here. In turn, the courtyards named after Jan Heweliusz and Daniel G. Fahrenheit in the Main Building was occupied by the Forum of Student Organizations and Clubs (FOKA). There were 43 exhibitors who talked about their activities and presented chemical inventions and experiments. Competitions and other attractions were also planned. One of them was the presentation of HAPADS project.

HAPADS meeting at Wrocław University of Science and Technology

7th March 2024

On March 7, 2024, during the annual meeting of the Coffee Break student organization at Wrocław University of Science and Technology (WUST), Krystian Wojtkiewicz, PhD, introduced the Highly Accurate and Autonomous Programmable Platform for Providing Air Pollution Data Services to Drivers and the Public (HAPADS). This groundbreaking project, a collaborative effort involving the Department of Applied Informatics (KIS) at WUST and five other entities from Poland and Norway, was funded by Norway Grants.

Over three years, KIS employees developed a novel system for predicting air pollution in urban environments. The presentation was further enriched by contributions from Filip Litwinienko and Jakub Mikłasz, who discussed their experience in enhancing the project. HAPADS aims to provide real-time, precise air quality data that benefits drivers and the general public.
