Data Engineering, visualisation and interpretation
Air quality is a hot topic in the Netherlands. Despite having a long coastline, air quality in this densely populated country often leaves much to be desired. Pollution and pollen cause major health concerns for people with respiratory issues.
Through our subsidiary company Datagraver (datagraver.com) we provide data based insights into popular topics. Currently these insights are created by manually crunching available public datasets. We are looking to automate and improve this process for the topic of air quality. There are many public datasets for air quality, some of which have recently become available because of new satellites.
Assignment
The goal of this assignment is to automate the process of obtaining air quality data for a location. Then package the data so it is meaningful for a consumer. Optionally to predict locations and times where air quality problems can be expected, based on historical data.
Candidate expectations
We expect the candidate to be near the end of completing a software engineering or data science degree at Bachelor or Master level. Depending on the type of degree we can extend or restrict the assignment to match the degree requirements. Itude can provide technical, functional and process guidance to the candidate on a weekly basis. But the candidate is expected to work mostly independently.
