Understanding Projects in Infrasta

What are Projects?

In Infrasta, a Project is a structured initiative or campaign that defines what kind of real-world data needs to be collected, for what purpose, and over what period of time. Projects are created by organizations, DAOs, researchers, or community members who need verified environmental data from the Infrasta network.

Key Aspects of Projects

• Defined Goals: Each project specifies clear objectives—such as monitoring noise pollution in a city, tracking temperature changes, or mapping air quality across regions.

• Custom Missions: Projects are made up of one or more missions—individual tasks that users can join to contribute specific types of data (e.g., “Record noise levels every 10 minutes for 24 hours”).

• Participation & Rewards: Users (data contributors) select missions within a project, contribute data via their device’s sensors, and receive $INFRA tokens as rewards for verified submissions.

• Data Ownership & Privacy: All contributed data remains encrypted and anonymized. Project creators never access users’ personal information—only the aggregated, validated results.

• Impact & Use Cases: Projects can serve various use cases, such as urban planning, academic research, disaster detection, environmental activism, and powering AI/DePIN applications with real-world data.

Example Projects

• City Sound Mapping: Collecting community noise data to help urban planners reduce sound pollution.

• Heatwave Watch: Monitoring temperature spikes in real time to support climate research and public health efforts.

• Clean Air Mission: Gathering air quality data across neighborhoods to empower citizen science and local advocacy.

How to Get Involved

• For Contributors: Browse and join open projects from the Infrasta app or dashboard. Choose missions that fit your interests, contribute data, and track your $INFRA rewards.

• For Project Creators: Define your data needs, set up missions, and invite the community to participate. Leverage the decentralized network to gather high-quality, trustless data—faster and more affordably than traditional methods.

With Projects, Infrasta enables collaborative, decentralized data collection at scale—turning community insights into actionable, verifiable digital assets for the benefit of all.
