Abstract

Our daily choices and lifestyle can affect the decrease or increase in air pollution, the overall health index, and the ozone layer. Unfortunately, ozone damage leads to the loss of 121 million tons of crops worldwide. In addition, the percentage of particulate matter (PM2.5) and surface ozone levels exceeded the limits set by the World Health Organization (WHO). The particles threatened most parts of Asia, Africa, and South America, causing sudden smog and lung disease. The Chinese central government has taken measures to improve the Air Quality Index (AQI) in Beijing and other regions. Measures have been taken to reduce primary emissions of gases and particulate matter. This study aimed to make a class prediction of the air quality index category in the Beijing region based on ozone and PM2.5 concentrations. The Internet of Things (IoT) has been used to collect sensor air quality data. The Internet of Things monitors air pollution and calculates levels of harmful gases, particulate matter, smoke, and more. This study focused on the use of operational intelligence in developing machine learning models for air quality index classification and comparing the results of classification models between the random forest classifier and the decision tree classifier. It helps in processing large amounts of data and making effective decisions. The random forest classifier has proven its efficiency in predicting the level of the air quality index. Temporal and spatial characteristics for the effective prediction of AQI were also considered.
