Idea
Millions of people suffer from allergies and struggle to plan safe travel. Exposure to pollen, pollution, and other allergens can severely impact health and limit mobility. Our solution is an interactive travel-assistant app that shows safe and unsafe areas for allergy-sensitive users, allowing them to plan trips, choose low-risk locations, and make informed decisions based on real-time data.

EU Space Technologies
We leverage Copernicus for air quality, pollen, and pollution data, Sentinel-2 for vegetation and allergen mapping, Galileo for high-precision positioning, and EGNOS to enhance location accuracy. This combination of satellite data allows us to provide personalized, location-based allergy risk information and interactive maps, helping users avoid high-risk areas and plan safer trips.

EU Space for Consumer Experience
We address the “Travel experience” challenge by improving the travel experience for allergy sufferers. Our solution enhances consumer experience by offering real-time environmental insights, AI-powered recommendations, and interactive maps that make it easier and safer to explore new locations without health risks.
