Low-cost instrumentation

Local field measurements, such as those from low-tech and/or low-cost sensors. The link between measurements from these “low-cost” techniques, those obtained by more conventional instrumentation (such as remote sensing) and data from social surveys of residents and users, constitutes a major scientific challenge for this approach.

Data recovery and processing

Technological lock-in : the use of artificial intelligence and data analysis, multi-scale and multi-origin (Social and Human Sciences), models of territories in their physico-chemical and socio-economic dimensions. This area focuses on data storage, processing, analysis, visualization and sharing.

Operationalization, awareness-raising and co-construction of data and observatories with territories

The aim is to co-construct and develop collaborative observation systems between stakeholders and researchers on targeted issues, such as reducing certain territorial vulnerabilities to climate change or population exposure to atmospheric pollution.
