AQMIS provides a combination of preliminary (real-time) and official (historical) data
"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."
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.
The air quality trends summaries are intended to reflect actual air quality and therefore include concentrations that may have been impacted by episodic events like wildfires and dust storms.
This open collection is designed to support and enhance global research initiatives focused on understanding and mitigating the health impacts of environmental exposures.
