Knowingly or unknowingly human beings are carrying a heavy burden of air pollution on their health. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports the death of 7 million people annually due to air pollution. People die due to air pollution induced diseases like ischaemic heart disease, Lung cancer etc. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) reports that air pollution killed 2,23,000 people in one year from lung cancer worldwide. So it is motivating to design such a system which can evaluate the quality of routes in the real time and estimate the personal exposure to the environmental pollution and suggest alternative friendly, less polluted routes to the users, which can help in avoiding excessive inhalation of air pollution.
