Ultrafine Particle Dataset Collected By The Opensense Zurich Mobile Sensor Network

<strong>Ultrafine Particle Dataset Collected by the OpenSense Zurich Mobile Sensor Network</strong> This dataset contains one year (2012/04- 2013/04, ~11Mio. samples) worth of ultra-fine particle (UFP) concentration measurements collected by a mobile senor network. The sensors are mounted on top of 10 streetcars in the city of Zurich, Switzerland. <strong>Hardware:</strong> <strong>Ultrafine particle sensor</strong>: MiniDiSC (see also: Martin Fierz et al. Design, Calibration, and Field Performance of a Miniature Diffusion Size Classifier. Aerosol Science and Technology, Volume 45, 2011.) <strong>GPS receiver</strong>: u-blox EVK-6p <strong>*.csv column format:</strong> Time of day: yyyy.mm.dd HH:MM Latitude WGS84 Longitude WGS84 HDOP: horizontal dillusion of precision, uncertainty of the GPS position Tram ID Number of particles [#/ccm] Average particle diameter [nm] LDSA: lung deposited surface area [um2 /cm3] <strong>Data quality:</strong><br> The data has been post-processed by performing a periodic null-offset calibration and filtering samples during malfunction. <strong>References:</strong><br> The dataset has been used and is described in more detail in the following publications: David Hasenfratz et al.<em> Pushing the Spatio-Temporal Resolution Limit of Urban Air Pollution Maps.</em> IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications (PerCom).
