Description
The Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK) developed the ATMAN (Advanced Technologies for Monitoring Air-quality Indicators) Center of Excellence.
The CoE is a step toward the Atma Nirbhar Bharat program, which focuses on developing indigenous low-cost sensor manufacturing and Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML) skills to improve air quality across the country's urban and rural areas. It strives to integrate sustainable technologies and business models into tangible products and services that are available to millions of people throughout the world. It also intends to use cutting-edge technology to address significant air quality issues.
“IIT Kanpur has taken significant strides in the battle against air pollution. This initiative of establishment of the Center of Excellence—ATMAN has firmly positioned the institute at the forefront of efforts to combat air pollution. Through ATMAN, IIT Kanpur is dedicated to the meticulous evaluation of health risks associated with air pollutants, as well as a comprehensive review of air quality standards," said Prof S Ganesh, Officiating Director, IIT Kanpur.
Monitoring rural ambient air quality with indigenous technologies AMRIT is a flagship project that would establish a sensor ambient air quality monitor (SAAQM) network with 1,400 nodes in rural areas of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. This is the first program of its sort to systematically monitor air quality in these regions, where data has hitherto been limited to cities and towns. According to the press release, the team will collaborate with the governments of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh on AMRIT to improve air quality action in these states.
The Dynamic Hyper-local Source Apportionment (DHSA) is a low-cost technique to source apportionment being pioneered in Lucknow and Kanpur, UP, that would allow authorities to make judgments in their air quality action planning. According to the news announcement, the PM2.5 prediction and airshed management project uses micro-satellite images, sensor-based ambient air quality networks, and machine learning to anticipate PM2.5 levels at finer resolutions.
“The CoE ATMAN has been setup to strategize and execute projects in the field of air quality with indigenous sensor manufacturing that is scalable globally. I appreciate the nurturing of Indian start-ups by this Centre. The coordination between science and government agencies is at the centre of citizens’ welfare. I take this opportunity to congratulate IIT Kanpur, the funders, and government agencies for contributing towards this endeavour," said Prof Ajay Sood, Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India.
“CoE ATMAN is spearheading the infusion of Indigenous Technology towards an Atmanirbhar Bharat. Association of State Government Departments in Bihar and UP, is helping bridge the gap in data driven Air Quality Management (AQM) policy,” said Professor Sachchida Nand Tripathi, who heads the Center of Excellence (CoE).
