<i>Vayu</i>: An Open-Source Toolbox for Visualization and Analysis of Crowd-Sourced Sensor Data

Recent advances in sensor technology and the availability of low-cost and low-power sensors have changed the air quality monitoring paradigm. These sensors are being widely used by scientists and citizens for monitoring air quality at finer spatial-temporal resolution. Such practices are opening up...
