Web Dashboard Development for Cloud Server-Based Air Quality Monitoring System

Air is an element that is inextricably linked to human life. Air pollution is not a new issue in Indonesia. In 2016, 80 percent of Indonesia's 256 million people lived in locations with annual average levels of particle pollution above WHO recommendations [1]. According to WHO, 90 percent of the world's population has inhaled polluted air, which kills seven million people each year [2]. With this knowledge, it is clear that air pollution is a problem with serious consequences for human health. Technological advancements can help decrease the risk of this issue. One of them is by developing a tool that can monitor air quality using the LoRa IoT communication protocol. This tool will utilize several air sensors, including the PMS5003 and MQ-131, which can detect the concentration of dangerous gases and particulates. In addition, the DHT-22 and KY-021 sensors can read temperature, humidity, and detect fire. The data of this reading will be saved in a database on the cloud server. This data will then be analyzed using ISPU standardization to provide an air quality index value, or AQI, which will be displayed on a web dashboard. The public can use this dashboard to learn about the surrounding air and what health recommendations can be done.
