Specifications

Scenarios

  • Measuring the fine dust contamination level in the air in real time. The value is displayed on the OLED Screen, and updated every second.
  • Measuring the current temperature.
  • Track and update device location in a real time.
  • Reading GPS data (longitude, latitude) from ThingSpeak and display it using Google Maps with the Maps JavaScript API.
  • Refining data and synchronize with the web-based cloud service. (i.e. ThingSpeak, Plaive)
  • Refining average calculated data to separate channel on the web-based cloud service. (i.e. ThingSpeak, Plaive)
  • Using reverse geocoding to convert a location (latitude, longitude) measured by the device to a readable address.
  • Using Microsoft Excel to process batch of locations (latitude, longitude). Data can be exported in CSV format from ThingSpeak to open in Excel.

What is Reverse Geocoding?

Reverse geocoding is the process of back (reverse) coding of a point location (latitude, longitude) to a readable address or place name. This permits the identification of nearby street addresses, places, and/or areal subdivisions such as neighbourhoods, county, state, or country.

TinyGPSPlus (TinyGPS++) for GY-NEO6MV2

A new, customizable Arduino NMEA parsing library A NEW Full-featured GPS/NMEA Parser for Arduino TinyGPS++ is a new Arduino library for parsing NMEA data streams provided by GPS modules.

Like its predecessor, TinyGPS, this library provides compact and easy-to-use methods for extracting position, date, time, altitude, speed, and course from consumer GPS devices.

SSD1306 (0.96") OLED Display

This is a driver for SSD1306 128x64, 128x32, 64x48 and 64x32 OLED displays running on the Arduino/ESP8266 & ESP32 and mbed-os platforms. Can be used with either the I2C or SPI version of the display.

RunningMedian

Arduino library to determine the running median by means of a circular buffer.
https://github.com/RobTillaart/Arduino/tree/master/libraries/RunningMedian

Running Median looks like a running average with a small but important twist. Running average averages the last N samples while the running median takes the last N samples, sort them and take the middle one, or the average of the middle two.

Important differences between running average and running median:

  • Running median will return real data (e.g. a real sample from a sensor) if one uses an odd size of the buffer (preferred). Running average may return a value that is never sampled.
  • Running median will give zero weight to outliers, and 100% to the middle sample, whereas running average gives the same weight to all samples.
  • Running median will give often constant values for some time.
  • As one knows the values in the buffer one can predict to some extend how much the next samples will change the running median.
  • Running median is a bit harder as one needs to keep the values in order to remove the oldest and keep them sorted to be able to select the median.
