- The IIT Kharagpur team has created the Dynamic Route Planning for the Urban Green Mobility (or DRUM) web app.
- It’s like Google Maps but with the added feature of allowing users pick routes based on air quality and energy efficiency.
- DRUM gives users the five route options: shortest, fastest, least exposure to air pollution (LEAP), least energy consumption route (LECR), and a combination of all four factors called the suggested route.
- The LEAP route reduced pollution exposure by over 50% in Central Delhi, despite increasing commute time by 40%.
