Omniscope · Data analytics · AI · Citizen science
I build software that turns data into decisions.
I’m Antonio Poggi, COO at Visokio. I help build Omniscope, experiment at the edge of data and AI, and use those same skills for public-interest work.
COO at Visokio and part of the team behind Omniscope
Two bodies of work
One professional, one civic. Both come from the same belief: people should be able to understand, inspect and act on their data.
Building Omniscope
Product direction, hands-on experiments, customer problems and two decades helping shape an end-to-end platform for serious data work.
Making evidence public
From Taranto’s institutional monitoring data to automated benzene alerts, and now to an open sensor reporting directly into Omniscope.
Air quality · Taranto
Evidence should not hide in a file.
Selected writing
Longer ideas, built from the work.
From Monitoring Taranto to Building Citizen-Owned Air-Quality Instruments
How a public dashboard for Taranto evolved into automated benzene alerts, civic evidence and an open air-quality monitor sending directly to Omniscope.
AirGradient Directly to Omniscope
The complete build: an Android controller, custom AirGradient firmware and a direct authenticated HTTPS pipeline into an Omniscope workflow.
A way of working
My best work tends to combine product judgment with the stubborn pleasure of making the complete thing actually work.
Stay close to the real problem.
Start with what somebody is genuinely trying to understand or accomplish, not a fashionable category.
Make the evidence inspectable.
A useful answer should retain a path back to its data, assumptions and transformations.
Build across the boundaries.
Product, code, communication, operations and design are different views of the same outcome.
