In collaboration with the EPA, CMAS is developing a suite of local-scale air quality screening tools called C-TOOLS (Community Air Quality Tools). These tools predict concentrations of multiple primary pollutants that are directly emitted (CO, SO2, NOx, PM2.5) and select Mobile Source Air Toxics (benzene, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acrolein) at fine spatial scales in the near-source environment.
The CDC Outdoor Air Quality Communications Toolkit is a specialized public health resource designed for health departments, professionals, and emergency responders to communicate the risks of air pollution to the general public.
"We are on a mission to bring accurate and affordable air quality monitoring to every corner of the planet and we are supported by a community of more than 30,000 engaged citizens who have already deployed an AirGradient monitor. To maximize our impact, we have completely open-sourced and shared our monitor design so that others can build upon it."
"Action taken by all cities, of every size and in every country, will play a part in securing a climate-safe future. The C40 Knowledge Hub exists to help cities succeed by making the knowledge, experience and advice of those toward the head of the curve accessible to all. We cover everything you should know about tried-and-tested solutions and emerging ideas – making sense of what they are, how to deliver them, and leading examples – to offer a breadth and depth across urban climate sectors that you cannot find elsewhere."
A compendEnviroAtlas is a comprehensive geospatial decision-support tool developed by the EPA to help users visualize and analyze the relationships between nature, people, and health.
Interactive dashboard to explore Oklahoma's triennial national emissions inventory data. Includes maps, graphs, and databases.
Founded in 2018, through the Bloomberg Mayors Challenge, the city of Denver created Love My Air. Love My Air is a citywide monitoring network to provide real-time air quality data utilizing cutting-edge air pollution technology. Through collaboration with many community organizations and partners, Love My Air provides workshops, trainings, and outreach connecting health to air quality.
AirNow is your one-stop source for air quality data. The website and app highlights air quality in your local area first, while still providing air quality information at state and national views. AirNow’s interactive map even lets you zoom out to get the big picture or drill down to see data for a single air quality monitor. AirNow’s Fire and Smoke map, a collaborative project with the US Forest Service, uses a variety of products including low-cost sensors to provide detailed, up-to-date information that can be critical to users experiencing smoke events.
