Problem

Air pollution: the greatest environmental health threat of our time​

Air pollution causes 7 million annual deaths world-wide, and is one of the biggest concerns for consumers – “clean air everywhere” is one of the top 10 global consumer trends. Air pollution particularly affects elderly, chronically ill, children and pregnant women who are also some of the most likely groups to commute by walking.

HealthyPlaces is a smartphone app for iOS and Android which helps people plan walking routes in urban environments with the least pollution exposure possible. Air-quality based routing will help citizens to protect themselves from smog and raise awareness for the global problem of air pollution.

Solution (2)

A complete indoor-outdoor experience

Thanks to Proximi.io’s leading navigation technology, HealthyPlaces calculates step-by-step walking routes for both indoor and outdoor settings.
