Abstract:

The quality of atmospheric air is one of the factors in assessing the environmental situation of the stud-ied area. Currently, the atmospheric air monitoring network mainly includes stationary posts, the use of which is difficult for territories with difficult terrain and, therefore, the formation of unusual meteorologi-cal conditions. In addition, stationary posts are quite expensive to operate. Therefore, attention was drawn to the use of autonomous mobile air quality control systems, which will expand the spatial cover-age, taking into account the use of unmanned platforms for various purposes. The paper defines the re-quirements for the system being created, and selects a component base for conducting test trials to verify the feasibility of this prototype. A characteristic of the components is given, which indicates the features of their components that determine temperature, humidity, types of pollutants and relative concentra-tions. Attention is focused on the interaction of the system elements with each other. A table of the ob-tained data and their interpretation is presented. The conclusions highlight that the monitoring network based on autonomous mobile small-sized devices and sensors performs a signaling function and allows speeding up the response of responsible services to emerging negative events related to atmospheric air pollution.
