Abstract: A pollution mapping system and method utilizes relative pollution data or pollution variations to provide pollution maps, history, and other information relating to the same. The system may comprise a central server that receives pollution data for individual pollution events, and process the pollution data to generate information such as pollution maps, history, or notifications. Pollution data will be received from a multitude of sensors, typically as the sensors travel through traffic, and includes at least pollution variation amplitude, detection location, and detection time.

Abstract: A traffic pollution indicator mounts to an air vent of a car or other vehicle to detect pollution and present pollution information to passengers. The traffic pollution indicator includes one or more sensors for detecting pollution, one or more microcontrollers and one or more communication devices to communicate with one or more display devices. Pollution is typically detected as a change in pollution levels by the traffic pollution indicator. Various display devices or a screen of the traffic pollution indicator present sensor information, in various visual representations, to passengers.
