  • Abstract
    The volume of commercial flights and the number of passengers carrying one or more digital devices aboard presents an opportunity for innovative research for the application of crowdsensing in the air. This paper explores opportunities to leverage crowdsensing in the context of the commercial airline industry. To demonstrate the potential of this approach, we present a diverse collection of use cases that span a variety of application domains, including health monitoring, safety and surveillance, scientific discovery, and business analytics.
