Air Quality Monitoring for Citizen Science

Air quality has a significant impact on our health. With new, low-cost sensor technologies and apps, everyday citizens can monitor air pollution on the go, where they live, work, and play - providing valuable information for individuals and communities, as well as troves of data for scientific research. But how accurate and appropriate are these technologies to meet the goals of the community groups? This podcast explores the potential and limitations of next-generation air quality monitors and offers strategies for citizen scientists as they get started.
