This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $200,000 to Stanford University over 3 years, starting July 1, 2024, to research and develop a community-driven vehicular and mobile crowdsensing system to measure neighborhood conditions and factors impacting the wellbeing of homeless populations in San Jose, CA.

The project aims to: (1) develop methods to reconstruct citywide maps of neighborhood environments and service needs, (2) model the causal relationships between neighborhood environments and wellbeing, and (3) optimize service delivery to improve and reduce inequality in wellbeing. Stanford will collaborate with local food pantries, residents, and the City of San Jose to provide actionable insights on needs related to food, trash, and toilets. The project also involves sub-awards to Carnegie Mellon University to design algorithms for reconstructing environmental maps and actuating service delivery vehicles, and to the University of Michigan to lead the mobile crowdsensing efforts.
