Personalized particulate matter exposure management using fine-grained weather modeling and optimal control theory

A computer program product for particulate matter exposure management, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform a method comprising:

• performing, by at least a computer processing system having a hardware processor, a particulate mapping process to predict particulate exposure at a target location based on an estimated particulate source, an estimated particulate source output, and a fine-grained weather forecast for the target location,
• wherein said performing step includes:
• estimating the target location using a fine-grained weather hindcast and inverse modelling;
• and
• generating observations of particulate exposure for one or more specific particulates, using a set of particulate sensors.

A system, comprising:

• a set of particulate sensors;
• and
• a computer processing system having a hardware processor, configured to:
• perform a particulate mapping process to predict particulate exposure at a target location based on an estimated particulate source, an estimated particulate source output, and a fine-grained weather forecast for the target location,
• wherein the mapping process is performed by estimating the target location using a fine-grained weather hindcast and inverse modelling, and generating observations of particulate exposure for one or more specific particulates, using the set of particulate sensors.
