Global Nominee
PureAir
High-Level Project Summary
PureAir is a project about air. At this hackathon, we are hosting a competition called "Earth Data Analysis Developers Needed". We want to create a VR application to provide complex satellite information in an easy way. It will be possible to see different types of natural phenomena, such as water, wind, fires, clouds. This project can become the basis for a mini-school for children and adults about our world.

Detailed Project Description
Before the start of the hackathon, we had little experience in displaying mathematical calculations. We were very frustrated that so much of the required data is mostly drawn on 2-d plots. And satellite data is regarded by people as just pictures. We decided to make a simple service where PHD's will upload their work and get beautiful 3d data. In order for such a service to exist, we can further sell these models (without the data itself), and by adding lessons about the structure of the planet to them, we will be able to teach children and adults. To cover the maximum audience, the project involves communication with the end user through the website, mobile application and VR - META
Space Agency Data
Copernicus - pollution data
Fire data from NASA FIRMS and Sentinel 3 and 5
Landscape data from modis
Hackathon Journey
The experience that was gained at the hackathon: visualization of mathematical modeling data, teamwork, expanded the horizons of satellite data that can be used.
Our team's choice of this task was inspired by previous experience with satellite data.
An innovative approach to developing a product that will engage the population in the problems of the Earth and make it easier to work with data.
Our team did not manage to install the program the first time, because it works on certain operating systems.
I would like to say a big thank you to the organizers of this hackathon! Hackathon is a cool thing, ideas are generated faster here. Thank you for this opportunity!
