Description
PlanetWatch is an environmental monitoring network built on the Algorand blockchain, aiming to collect high-quality air quality data through a decentralized system. By deploying sensors owned by individuals and organizations, it provides real-time insights into air pollution. Participants earn PLANETS tokens as rewards for their contributions, leveraging Algorand's security and scalability. PlanetWatch offers a range of air quality sensors and partners with a leading research center to maintain an immutable air quality ledger. This initiative addresses the limitations of traditional, expensive monitoring methods by employing cost-effective, real-time sensors and public participation. The collected data helps governments, regulators, city administrators, and citizens make informed decisions to better protect public health, emphasizing blockchain's potential beyond financial use.
