Hi all!

I just wanted to ask what the sensor specialists think about the setup
of the EveryAware Sensor Box, see [1]. Is it comparable at all?

I am quite sure there has been contact between AirQualityEgg people and
EveryAware folks (e.g. Citizen Cyberscience Summit), so maybe someone
(Ed?) can elaborate on discussed topics. Imho the two projects could
profit from each other, but maybe the approaches are too different?

They did plug the Kickstarter project [2], btw :-).

Best regards,
Daniel

Yes, I'm sure some of them from that project are even on this list.

I see the EveryAware project as similar to Joe's Citizensensor
project. We've definitely had good conversations with them, but they
are particularly concerned with calibration and putting mobile sensors
on people, where we are building a sensor network and community. It's
very different. It's great to have the cross pollination, though!
