# ConnectedHumber-Air-Quality-Interface

> The web interface and JSON api for the ConnectedHumber Air Quality Monitoring Project.

This project contains the web interface for the ConnectedHumber air Quality Monitoring system. It is composed of 2 parts:

 - A PHP-based JSON API server (entry point: api.php) that's backed by a MariaDB server
 - A Javascript client application that runs in the browser

The client-side browser application is powered by [Leaflet](https://leafletjs.com/).

Note that this project is _not_ responsible for entering data into the database. This project's purpose is simply to display the data.
