Sustainable transport services are key for a smart city, especially when considering the increasing size of the population in major cities. In this context, carpooling solutions have gained more and more popularity in the last years.

The main goal of this paper is to present some of the most relevant work in the area of air pollution monitoring in large cities and water monitoring in rural areas. Additionally, we present our solution based on a participatory sensing approach for air pollution monitoring in large cities, and our ongoing work in the area of multi-modal WSNs for water monitoring in agricultural applications.
Air pollution monitoring has become an essential requirement for cities worldwide. Currently, the most extended way to monitor air pollution is via fixed monitoring stations, which are expensive and hard to install. To solve this problem, we have developed EcoSensor, a solution to monitor air pollution through mobile sensors. It is deployed with off-the-shelf hardware such as Waspmote (based on the...
