A Vehicle for Research: Using Street Sweepers to Explore the Landscape of Environmental Community Action
, 2009
"... Researchers are developing mobile sensing platforms to facilitate public awareness of environmental conditions. However, turning such awareness into practical community action and political change requires more than just collecting and presenting data. To inform research on mobile environmental sens ..."
